U+11445 "ð‘‘…" Newa Sign Visarga Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

ð‘‘…

U+11445 "ð‘‘…" Newa Sign Visarga is a punctuation mark used in the Newa script, which is historically employed to write the Newar language of Nepal and sometimes Sanskrit. This character represents a visarga, a diacritical or post-consonantal sign in the Brahmic family of scripts that indicates a voiceless breathy release or an aspirated echo of the preceding vowel sound. In textual usage, it often appears at the end of a word or phrase to denote a pause or a specific phonetic termination, functioning similarly to the visarga found in scripts like Devanagari. Its inclusion in the Unicode standard ensures that this essential element of Newa orthography can be accurately represented and digitally preserved for modern computing and linguistic documentation.
