U+105C "ၜ" Myanmar Letter Mon Bba Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
ၜ
U+105C "ၜ" Myanmar Letter Mon Bba is a character used in the Mon language, primarily spoken in Myanmar (Burma) and neighboring regions, to represent a voiced bilabial stop sound distinct from the standard Burmese "ba". It forms part of the extended Myanmar block in Unicode, which was added to support the unique orthographic needs of Mon, a Mon-Khmer language written with its own modified form of the Burmese script. This character is typically found in historical and modern Mon texts, where it is essential for accurately representing native Mon words and distinguishing them from words in Burmese or other related languages.
