U+1108B "ð‘‚‹" Kaithi Letter O Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

ð‘‚‹

U+1108B "ð‘‚‹" Kaithi Letter O is a glyph from the Kaithi script, an abugida historically used for writing languages such as Magahi, Bhojpuri, Maithili, and Urdu in northern India and Nepal. This character specifically represents the independent vowel sound "o", functioning as a standalone letter rather than a vowel sign attached to a consonant. Encoded in the Unicode Standard for digital text, it preserves the typographic form of this historic script, which was widely employed for administrative and legal documents before the widespread adoption of Devanagari. Its correct rendering requires appropriate font and software support to display the distinct rounded and angled strokes characteristic of Kaithi writing.
