U+0DA7 "ට" Sinhala Letter Alpapraana Ttayanna Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+0DA7 "ට" Sinhala Letter Alpapraana Ttayanna is a symbol from the Sinhala script, primarily used in the Sinhala language of Sri Lanka, where it represents a retroflex voiceless plosive consonant sound, roughly equivalent to the "t" sound in English but produced with the tongue curled back against the roof of the mouth. This letter belongs to the category of "alpapraana" or unaspirated consonants in Sinhala phonetics, meaning it is pronounced without a burst of air, in contrast to the aspirated counterpart "ඨ" (Mahapraana Ttayanna). In the Unicode standard, it is classified under the Sinhala block (U+0D80 to U+0DFF) and is encoded as a single character for digital text processing, enabling accurate representation and rendering of Sinhala words in modern computing environments.
