Unicode Version 17.0

ð‘€”

U+11014 "ð‘€”" Brahmi Letter Kha is a glyph that represents the aspirated voiceless velar plosive sound "kha" in the ancient Brahmi script, one of the earliest writing systems used in South Asia. This character belongs to the Brahmi block of the Unicode Standard, which was added to support the historical script used primarily for inscribing Prakrit and Sanskrit texts from around the 3rd century BCE onward. As the fourth consonant in the Brahmi syllabary, it appears in numerous Ashokan edicts and early Buddhist manuscripts, providing a vital link for modern scholars studying the evolution of Indic writing systems.
