U+114C1 "𑓁" Tirhuta Sign Visarga Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
𑓁
U+114C1 "𑓁" Tirhuta Sign Visarga is a diacritical mark from the Tirhuta script, historically used for writing the Maithili language in the Mithila region of India and Nepal. This sign represents the visarga, a phonetic feature found in many Indic scripts that denotes a voiceless breathy sound after a vowel, often transcribed as "h" with a following aspiration or as a distinct final consonant. In the context of the Tirhuta script, this character follows a vowel symbol to modify its pronunciation, functioning similarly to the visarga in Devanagari and other Brahmic scripts. The character is encoded in the Unicode Standard as part of the Tirhuta block, supporting the accurate digital representation of historical and modern Maithili texts.
