U+11611 "𑘑" Modi Letter Gha Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
𑘑
U+11611 "𑘑" Modi Letter Gha is a character from the Modi script, a historical Brahmi-based abugida used primarily to write the Marathi language, particularly during the Maratha Empire from the 17th to the 19th centuries. This specific letter represents the voiced velar aspirated stop sound "gha," akin to the "gh" in English "loghouse," and is part of the consonant set used to transcribe words with a breathy voiced articulation. As a member of the Modi block added in Unicode 7.0, it supports the preservation and digital encoding of historical Marathi manuscripts, inscriptions, and administrative documents, where it served as an alternative to the Devanagari script in official and literary contexts.
