U+11C0D "𑰍" Bhaiksuki Letter Au Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+11C0D "𑰍" Bhaiksuki Letter Au is a glyph representing the independent vowel "au" in the Bhaiksuki script, an ancient Brahmi-derived writing system historically used primarily in the Himalayan region, notably around modern-day Tibet and Nepal, for writing Sanskrit and related languages. This character corresponds to the diphthong sound "au" as in the English word "loud" and is part of a larger set of Bhaiksuki letters that was only added to the Unicode Standard in June 2014 with version 7.0, making it a relatively recent addition for digital representation. The Bhaiksuki script itself is known for its angular, elegant letterforms and is closely associated with Buddhist manuscript traditions, though it is now largely historical and not used in modern everyday writing.
