G'ag'ai

G'ag'ai Jargūci (Manchu: ᡬᠠᡬᠠᡳ, romanized: G'ag'ai; d. 1600) was an early Jianzhou Jurchen statesman of the Irgen Gioro clan, who later belonged to the Manchu Bordered Red Banner. G'ag'ai was given the title “Judicial Minister” (Manchu: ᠵᠠᡵᡤᡡᠴᡳ, romanized: Jargūci) and is remembered as one of the creators of the initial edition of the Manchu script, known as "the Script Without Dots and Circles" (Tongki Fuka Akū Hergen, 无圈點滿文).
