Unicode Version 17.0
ठ
U+0920 "ठ" Devanagari Letter Ttha is a consonant used in the Devanagari script, representing the aspirated voiceless retroflex plosive sound /ʈʰə/. It is the twentieth character in the Devanagari alphabet and corresponds to a distinct phoneme in languages such as Hindi, Marathi, Nepali, and Sanskrit, where it is pronounced with a burst of air from the tongue curled back against the palate. In transliteration, it is typically mapped to "ṭh" and requires careful articulation to distinguish it from its unaspirated counterpart "ट" (Ta). This character is an essential component for accurately writing and reading many South Asian languages.
