U+115C6 "ð‘—†" Siddham Repetition Mark-1 Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
ð‘—†
U+115C6 "ð‘—†" Siddham Repetition Mark-1 is a punctuation mark used in the Siddham script, an historic Brahmic writing system primarily employed for writing Sanskrit and Buddhist texts in East Asia, particularly in Japan. This specific character functions as a repetition or ditto mark, indicating that the preceding word or syllable should be repeated in a sequential context, thereby streamlining the written text by avoiding full redoubling. It appears within Siddham manuscripts and inscriptions, often serving a similar role to modern ellipsis or repeat marks in other scripts, and is encoded in the Unicode Siddham block, which was added in version 9.0 of the standard to support the digital preservation of this liturgical script.
