Unicode Version 17.0

𐽊

U+10F4A "𐽊" Sogdian Combining Curve Above is a diacritical mark used in the Sogdian script, an ancient writing system of Central Asia derived from Aramaic. This combining character is placed above a base letter to modify its phonetic value or grammatical function, typically indicating a vowel or altering the consonantal sound in Sogdian text. It belongs to the Sogdian block of Unicode, which was added to support the historical languages of the Sogdian people, who played a key role in Silk Road trade and culture. As a combining mark, it is not used independently but requires a preceding base character, and it appears in manuscripts dating from roughly the 4th to 10th centuries CE.
