U+0E11 "ฑ" Thai Character Tho Nangmontho Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+0E11 "ฑ" Thai Character Tho Nangmontho is a letter in the Thai alphabet, specifically representing the low class consonant with the sound [tʰ] as in the English "th" in "thought," but pronounced with an unaspirated, voiced quality in some contexts. It is classified as a low class consonant in Thai phonology, which affects the tone of the syllable in which it appears, and its name derives from the word "นางมนโท" (nang montho), meaning a kind of mythological female figure or celestial dancer. This character is used primarily in written Thai for loanwords, proper names, and certain native words, distinguishing it from the more common "ถ" (Tho Thong) through its unique visual form, which resembles a curled or looped design. Its inclusion in Unicode ensures proper digital representation for modern text processing and display across devices and platforms.
