U+119A7 "𑦧" Nandinagari Letter Vocalic Rr Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
𑦧
U+119A7 "𑦧" Nandinagari Letter Vocalic Rr is a specific glyph from the Nandinagari script, an ancient Brahmic writing system historically used in southern India for writing Sanskrit and other languages. This character represents a syllabic form of the retroflex 'r' sound with a vocalic quality, akin to the short vowel of the same name in Devanagari and other Indic scripts. Unlike a consonant, it functions as a vowel base or a syllable nucleus in the script's orthography. Its inclusion in Unicode allows for the accurate digital representation and preservation of texts written in Nandinagari, particularly important for scholarly work, epigraphy, and the study of historical manuscripts.
