Unicode Version 17.0

𑰵

U+11C35 "𑰵" Bhaiksuki Vowel Sign Vocalic Rr is a combining diacritical mark used in the Bhaiksuki script, an ancient Brahmic script historically employed for writing manuscripts in regions of South Asia, particularly for texts related to Buddhism. This specific vowel sign represents a vocalic "rr" sound, a syllabic rhotic vowel that functions as a syllable nucleus, akin to the vowel seen in Sanskrit and other Indic languages. When applied to a base consonant character, it modifies the pronunciation by attaching this distinctive liquid vowel quality, and it is encoded in Unicode to support digital representation and preservation of the Bhaiksuki script, which is part of the broader effort to document endangered and historical writing systems.
