U+0F77 "ཷ" Tibetan Vowel Sign Vocalic Rr Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+0F77 "ཷ" Tibetan Vowel Sign Vocalic Rr is a combining diacritical mark used in the Tibetan script to represent a long vocalic "r" sound, specifically a prolonged or extended articulation of the vowel-like rhotic. It is typically placed above the base consonant in Tibetan orthography, modifying its pronunciation in the transliteration of Sanskrit texts and in certain native Tibetan syllables. This character is part of a set of vowel signs that derive from the traditional Indian Brahmi-based writing systems, and it is distinct from the short vocalic "r" due to its added length marker.
