Unicode Version 17.0
ð‘‚´
U+110B4 "ð‘‚´" Kaithi Vowel Sign Uu is a combining diacritical mark used in the Kaithi script, which was historically employed for writing languages such as Hindi, Urdu, and Bhojpuri in northern India. This vowel sign represents the long vowel sound "uu" (similar to the "oo" in "boot") and is placed after a consonant character to modify its inherent vowel, changing it to the long u sound. As part of the Kaithi block encoded in Unicode version 9.0, this character helps preserve the written heritage of administrative, legal, and literary texts from the medieval and early modern periods of the Indian subcontinent.
