Deseret alphabet

The Deseret alphabet is an alphabet invented in the 19th century by Mormons in Utah for writing the English language. The idea was to reform the spelling of English so immigrants would find it easier to learn. It never became particularly popular, and fell into disuse soon after its creation.

Unicode standard 3.1 includes the Deseret alphabet in positions 10400 to 1044F. (Most combinations of operating systems, Web browsers, and installed font sets will not be able to display this table correctly.)
