Unicode Version 17.0

𑨙

U+11A19 "𑨙" Zanabazar Square Letter Ta is a character from the Zanabazar Square script, historically used to write the Mongolian, Tibetan, and Sanskrit languages, primarily in Buddhist texts and manuscripts. Invented by the 17th century Mongolian monk and scholar Zanabazar, this script is believed to have been designed for translating sacred writings, and its geometric, square style gives it a distinct visual appearance compared to other abugida scripts. The letter Ta represents a voiceless, unaspirated dental stop sound, similar to the English "t" in "stop," and it functions as a consonant character within the script's syllabic writing system. This character is particularly valuable to digital typography and historical linguistics for preserving the precise rendering and scholarly study of this unique cultural script.
