Unicode Version 17.0

𑈘

U+11218 "𑈘" Khojki Letter Nna is a specific glyph from the Khojki script, an ancient writing system historically used by the Ismaili community of South Asia to record religious and literary texts in languages such as Sindhi, Gujarati, and Kutchi. This character represents a retroflex nasal consonant sound, which is distinct from the dental 'n' and is produced with the tongue curled back against the palate. As part of the Khojki alphabet, it played a vital role in preserving the esoteric literature of the Nizari Ismaili tradition, particularly the ginans, and its inclusion in the Unicode standard ensures that digital platforms can accurately display and archive this culturally significant script for contemporary use.
