U+11801 "𑠁" Dogra Letter Aa is a glyph from the Dogra script, an abugida historically used to write the Dogri language in the northern Indian region of Jammu and Kashmir. This specific character represents the long vowel sound "aa" and is part of the Dogra block of Unicode, which was added to the standard in 2018 to preserve and digitally encode this endangered script. Its shape is a distinctive cursive form, reflecting the elegant calligraphic tradition of the Dogra script, and its inclusion in Unicode supports modern digital documentation, text processing, and revitalization efforts for the Dogri language and its cultural heritage.
