Unicode Version 17.0
𑘋
U+1160B "𑘋" Modi Letter Ai is a grapheme from the Modi script, an abugida historically used to write the Marathi language in western India, particularly during the 17th to early 20th centuries prior to the standardization of the Devanagari script. This character represents the vowel sound "ai" and is formed by combining the vowel carrier with the distinctive diacritical marking typical of Modi's cursive and efficient writing style. As part of the Modi block in Unicode, it serves a crucial role in preserving and digitally encoding historical documents, religious manuscripts, and inscriptions where this unique script was employed for administrative, literary, and ceremonial purposes.
