U+11C31 "ð‘°±" Bhaiksuki Vowel Sign Ii Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
ð‘°±
U+11C31 "ð‘°±" Bhaiksuki Vowel Sign Ii is a combining diacritical mark used in the Bhaiksuki script, an ancient Brahmic writing system historically employed to write Buddhist texts, particularly in regions of present-day India and Nepal around the 10th to 12th centuries. As a vowel sign, it indicates the long vowel sound "ii" (similar to the "ee" in "see") when attached to a base consonant character, altering its inherent vowel from a short "a". This glyph is part of the Bhaiksuki block in Unicode, which was added to support the digital representation of this extinct script, aiding scholars and enthusiasts in the preservation and study of its manuscripts and inscriptions.
