Unicode Version 17.0
ð
U+11298 "ð" Multani Letter Da is a glyph representing a consonant from the Multani script, an ancient writing system historically used in the Multan region of present-day Pakistan and parts of India. This script, which belongs to the Brahmic family of scripts, was primarily employed to write the Saraiki language, among others, before being largely supplanted by the Perso-Arabic script. The letter Da corresponds to the voiced dental plosive sound /dĖŠ/ and serves as a fundamental component in forming words within the Multani writing system, which is now part of the Unicode Standard to aid in digital preservation and scholarly study of this historical script.
