𑜢
U+11722 "𑜢" Ahom Vowel Sign I is a combining diacritical mark used in the Ahom script, an abugida historically employed to write the Ahom language, which was once spoken in the Assam region of northeastern India. This vowel sign represents a short or long "i" sound and is placed above or attached to a consonant letter to modify its inherent vowel, creating a syllable with the "i" vowel. It is part of the Ahom block in Unicode, which was added to facilitate the digital preservation and representation of this historical script, used primarily in religious and historical manuscripts from the Ahom kingdom that flourished from the 13th to the 18th century.
