U+0770 "ݰ" Arabic Letter Seen with Small Arabic Letter Tah and Two Dots Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

ݰ

U+0770 "ݰ" Arabic Letter Seen with Small Arabic Letter Tah and Two Dots is a specialized Arabic script character used in certain extended Arabic alphabets, particularly for languages like Sindhi and other languages of South Asia and West Africa, where it represents a unique consonant sound not found in standard Arabic. The glyph is constructed from the letter "Seen" (س) as its base, combined with a small "Tah" (ط) above it and two dots below, which together modify the pronunciation to a distinct retroflex or emphatic sibilant sound. This character is part of the Arabic Supplement block and is encoded to support accurate textual representation and digital communication for languages that require these additional phonetic distinctions.
