The letter 𐑲 makes the sound of the word "eye", and I think it looks quite like an eye in profile.
It is made from an 𐑨 with a sideways 𐑦 on top, because it makes the sounds of those letters run together.
Of course we can use it to write the word "I" as well.
Now you can write:
| 𐑲 | "I", or "eye" | |
| 𐑑𐑲 | "tie" | |
| 𐑐𐑲 | "pie", or the number π (pi) | |
| 𐑮𐑲𐑕 | "rice" | |
| 𐑓𐑲𐑝 | "five" |
