U+0FBE "྾" Tibetan Ku Ru Kha Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+0FBE "྾" Tibetan Ku Ru Kha is a Tibetan script mark used in the Tibetan writing system, specifically functioning as a vocalic or orthographic diacritic rather than an independent consonant. It represents a short vowel or a vowel-like sound, often appearing as a subscript or attached form within Tibetan syllables to modify the pronunciation of a base character. This character is part of the Tibetan block in Unicode, which encodes a range of symbols and letters from this complex abugida used for writing Tibetan, Dzongkha, and related languages, and its precise usage depends on the context of the syllable structure, though it is generally considered a rare or specialized glyph historically employed in certain texts or transcriptions.
