Unicode Version 17.0
ð‘’´
U+114B4 "ð‘’´" Tirhuta Vowel Sign Uu is a combining diacritical mark used in the Tirhuta script, which is historically employed for writing the Maithili language primarily spoken in the Mithila region of India and Nepal. This vowel sign modifies a consonant to add the long "uu" sound, functioning as an attached stroke that appears to the right of the base consonant character. It is part of the Tirhuta Unicode block, added in version 7.0 of the Unicode Standard, and is essential for accurately representing the phonetics of Maithili in digital text. The sign is distinct from the independent vowel character for "uu" and is used in combination with consonant letters to form syllables.
