U+11216 "𑈖" Khojki Letter Dda is a character from the Khojki script, a writing system historically used by the Isma'ili Khoja communities of South Asia to write Sindhi, Gujarati, and other languages. This particular letter represents the retroflex voiced stop sound, typically romanized as "ḍ" or "dd" as in English "odd". It is part of the Unicode Standard's Khojki block, which was added to support the digital preservation and representation of this religious and cultural script. The Khojki script is cursive and derived from the Landa and other Brahmi-derived scripts, with the Letter Dda being one of its distinctive consonants used in both sacred manuscripts and vernacular literature.
