U+1128F "𑊏" Multani Letter Nya Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

𑊏

U+1128F "𑊏" Multani Letter Nya is a glyph from the Multani script, an abjad historically used to write the Saraiki language in the Punjab region of South Asia, and it represents the palatal nasal consonant sound /ɲ/, similar to the "ny" in "canyon" or the Spanish "ñ". This script, which underwent standardization in the Unicode Standard version 8.0 released in 2015, was primarily employed for mercantile and literary purposes before being largely supplanted by the Shahmukhi and Gurmukhi scripts. In modern digital contexts, correct rendering of this character requires a font that supports the Multani script, and it is used in scholarly work and cultural preservation efforts to accurately transcribe historical texts and proper names from the Saraiki language.
