U+119DA "𑧚" Nandinagari Vowel Sign E Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+119DA "𑧚" Nandinagari Vowel Sign E is a combining diacritical mark used in the Nandinagari script, a historical Brahmic writing system primarily employed to write Sanskrit and occasionally other languages in southern India. This vowel sign modifies a base consonant character to represent the vowel sound /e/ by attaching a specific visual mark above or to the left of the consonant glyph, depending on the script's rendering rules. As part of the Nandinagari Unicode block, it was added in version 12.0 of the Unicode Standard to preserve and digitally represent this ancient script, often found in manuscripts and inscriptions from regions like Karnataka and Maharashtra. The character aids in accurately transcribing the phonetic nuances of Sanskrit texts, ensuring that the script's unique orthographic traditions are maintained in modern digital environments.
