U+0FB2 "ྲ" Tibetan Subjoined Letter Ra Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+0FB2 "ྲ" Tibetan Subjoined Letter Ra is a combining mark used in the Tibetan script to represent the consonant "ra" when it appears in a subjoined form beneath another character, typically as part of a conjunct consonant cluster. This subjoined letter modifies the pronunciation of the base character by adding an "r" sound, often resulting in a retroflex or rhotic quality depending on the surrounding letters. It is encoded in the Unicode Standard within the Tibetan block, which supports the writing system for languages like Tibetan, Dzongkha, and sometimes Sanskrit, and is essential for accurately rendering complex syllables in Tibetan calligraphy and digital text.
