U+11285 "ð‘Š…" Multani Letter Kha Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
ð‘Š…
U+11285 "ð‘Š…" Multani Letter Kha is a character from the Multani script, an abugida historically used to write the Multani or Saraiki language in the Punjab region of South Asia. This specific character represents the aspirated voiceless velar plosive sound, equivalent to the English "kh" as heard in the word "khan." The Multani script, which is a descendant of the Landa script family, was traditionally employed for mercantile and everyday writing before being largely supplanted by the Perso-Arabic script. The inclusion of this character in Unicode preserves an important part of the cultural and linguistic heritage of the region, allowing for digital representation and study of the script and its literature.
