U+0682 "ڂ" Arabic Letter Hah with Two Dots Vertical Above Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+0682 "ڂ" Arabic Letter Hah with Two Dots Vertical Above is a variant of the Arabic letter hah, primarily used in certain African languages and historical orthographies to represent a specific phonetic sound, often a voiceless glottal or pharyngeal fricative distinct from the standard Arabic ح. Its defining feature is the placement of two small dots arranged vertically above the base letter, which differentiates it from other hah forms in the Arabic script block. This character is encoded for compatibility with diverse writing systems, such as those for the Hausa, Fula, or early Persian languages, where it helps resolve ambiguities in transliteration or dialectal pronunciation. As part of the Arabic Supplement range in Unicode, it supports the digital representation of texts that require precise orthographic distinctions beyond the standard 28-letter Arabic alphabet.
