U+114AC "ð‘’¬" Tirhuta Letter Sha Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
ð‘’¬
U+114AC "ð‘’¬" Tirhuta Letter Sha is a character from the Tirhuta script, an abugida historically used to write the Maithili language primarily in the Mithila region of Bihar, India and parts of Nepal. This specific character represents the consonant sound “sha” (like the “sh” in “shut”) and is part of the Brahmic family of scripts, which originated from the ancient Brahmi alphabet. The Tirhuta script is now largely replaced by the Devanagari script for writing Maithili, but efforts persist to preserve and digitally encode it, with this letter being an essential component for accurate representation and revival of the script in modern digital environments.
