U+11407 "𑐇" Newa Letter Vocalic Rr Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

𑐇

U+11407 "𑐇" Newa Letter Vocalic Rr is a symbol from the Newa (or Newar) script, which is used primarily to write the Nepal Bhasa language, also known as Newari, in Nepal. This grapheme represents a vocalic form of the letter "r," specifically the vocalic rr sound, functioning as a vowel in the script's syllabic inventory rather than as a consonant. It belongs to the block Newa, which was added to the Unicode Standard in version 9.0 released in 2016, and its inclusion supports the digital preservation and representation of Newari texts, including historical manuscripts and modern publications. The character's appearance is a distinctive curled or looped shape, typical of the Brahmi-derived Newa script, and it is encoded for use in writing systems that treat vocalic consonants as independent vowels.
