Unicode Version 17.0
ð‘©‚
U+11A42 "ð‘©‚" Zanabazar Square Mark Shad is a punctuation mark used in the Zanabazar Square script, an abugida historically employed for writing Mongolian, Tibetan, and Sanskrit texts. This specific mark functions similarly to a full stop or period, signaling the end of a sentence or a major section in a manuscript. Its vertical alignment and square shape reflect the symmetrical, geometric design of the script, which was developed in the late 17th century by the Mongolian monk and scholar Zanabazar. The character is part of a small set of punctuation in the Zanabazar Square block, added to Unicode in 2014 as part of version 7.0 to support the representation of historical texts.
