U+067C "ټ" Arabic Letter Teh with Ring Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
ټ
U+067C "ټ" Arabic Letter Teh with Ring is a modified Arabic letter used primarily in the Pashto language, where it represents a retroflex voiceless alveolar stop, a sound distinct from the standard Arabic "t" and similar to the English "t" in "stop" but with the tongue curled back. Its form consists of the standard Arabic letter "teh" (ت) with a small ring superimposed above it, and it is encoded in the Unicode Arabic block to support the orthographic needs of languages like Pashto and occasionally other regional scripts. This character appears in the middle or end of words and is essential for accurately writing and reading Pashto texts, distinguishing words that would otherwise be homographs with the plain "teh".
