U+11A0C "𑨌" Zanabazar Square Letter Kha Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+11A0C "𑨌" Zanabazar Square Letter Kha is a script character used in the Zanabazar Square alphabet, which was historically employed to write several languages in the Himalayan region, including Mongolian, Tibetan, and Sanskrit. It specifically represents the aspirated voiceless velar plosive sound, similar to the "kh" in the English word "khan." The script itself was created in the late 17th century by the revered Buddhist scholar and monk Zanabazar, who designed it as a more efficient and decorative alternative to existing writing systems for religious and administrative texts. This letter is an integral part of the script's consonant inventory, contributing to the precise phonetic representation of words in the languages it was used for.
