U+067A "ٺ" Arabic Letter Tteheh Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

ٺ

U+067A "ٺ" Arabic Letter Tteheh is a variant form of the Arabic letter "teh" (ت) used primarily in the Sindhi language, spoken in parts of Pakistan and India. It represents a retroflex voiceless plosive sound, similar to the "t" in the English word "train" but pronounced with the tongue curled back against the palate, a sound not found in standard Arabic. This character is encoded in the Arabic block of Unicode and often appears in extended Arabic scripts to accommodate phonetic distinctions in languages like Sindhi, Saraiki, and occasionally Punjabi. Its inclusion ensures that digital text can accurately represent the unique sounds of these languages, preserving their linguistic identity.
