U+0E46 "ๆ" Thai Character Maiyamok Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+0E46 "ๆ" Thai Character Maiyamok is a Thai punctuation mark used to indicate the repetition of a preceding word or syllable, functioning similarly to a ditto mark or iteration sign in the Thai script. It is placed after a word to mean the word is spoken or written again, often without any change in meaning or form, and it is commonly found in informal writing, names, and certain compound words to simplify repetition. This character is encoded in the Unicode standard under the Thai block and is an essential part of Thai typography, allowing for more efficient and natural expression in the language without needing to repeat the full term.
