U+0AC0 "ી" Gujarati Vowel Sign Ii Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+0AC0 "ી" Gujarati Vowel Sign Ii is a combining diacritical mark used in the Gujarati script to represent the long vowel sound "ii" or "ī". It appears as a small curved mark placed above and to the right of a consonant character, modifying the consonant's inherent vowel sound to the long "ee" sound. This vowel sign is classified as a spacing combining mark, meaning it occupies its own visible space when rendered with a base character, and it is essential for accurately writing and reading many Gujarati words and proper nouns.
