U+11199 "๐" Sharada Letter Jha is a glyph from the Sharada script, an ancient abugida historically used to write the Kashmiri and Sanskrit languages in the northwestern regions of the Indian subcontinent, particularly in Kashmir. This character represents the aspirated voiced palatal plosive consonant sound "jha" (IPA: /dอกสสฑ/) and is part of the consonant inventory of the script. As a distinct letter in the Sharada block of Unicode, it preserves the orthographic tradition of the script, which has seen diminished modern use but remains important for scholarly work in historical linguistics and manuscript studies.
