Unicode Version 17.0

𐽏

U+10F4F "𐽏" Sogdian Combining Resh Below is a combining diacritical mark used in the Sogdian script, an ancient writing system of Central Asia that was employed for religious, commercial, and literary texts, particularly associated with the Sogdian language and its descendant Yaghnobi. This character specifically represents the consonant sound of the letter "resh" but is placed beneath the base letter to modify its phonetic value, often functioning as a subscript or ligature element in complex syllable or word formations. Its encoding in Unicode helps preserve and digitally represent the intricate orthography of Sogdian manuscripts, which were historically written in various regional styles and influenced the development of other Central Asian scripts like Uyghur and Mongolian.
