U+116B7 "𑚷" Takri Sign Nukta Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+116B7 "𑚷" Takri Sign Nukta is a combining diacritical mark used in the Takri script, a historical abugida primarily employed to write languages such as Dogri, Kinnauri, and Chamba in northern India and parts of Pakistan. This character functions similarly to the nukta in other Indic scripts, appearing beneath a base consonant to modify its inherent sound, typically indicating a subtle phonetic shift or the adoption of a non-native phoneme, such as a voiced or borrowed sound not originally present in the script. It is encoded in the Unicode Standard as part of the Takri block, enabling accurate digital representation and text rendering for languages that rely on this script. The sign is essential for preserving the precise pronunciation of words in historical manuscripts and modern written forms where indigenous sounds are distinguished from Sanskrit-derived ones.
