U+11707 "𑜇" Ahom Letter Pha Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
𑜇
U+11707 "𑜇" Ahom Letter Pha is a specific glyph from the Ahom script, a writing system historically used to record the Ahom language of the Tai ethnic group in the Assam region of northeastern India. This character represents the sound "pha" and is part of the Ahom block of Unicode, which was included in version 20.0 to support the digitization of historical manuscripts and cultural texts. The Ahom script, with its origins in the 13th century, is written from left to right and consists of characters for consonants, vowels, and diacritical marks, with this letter playing a role in transcribing the phonetic inventory of the now largely extinct Ahom language, which survives primarily in liturgical and scholarly contexts.
