Unicode Version 17.0

U+11C39 "ð‘°¹" Bhaiksuki Vowel Sign Ai is a combining diacritical mark used in the Bhaiksuki script, an ancient Brahmi-derived writing system historically employed in parts of South Asia, particularly for Buddhist manuscripts. This character represents the vowel sound "ai" and is placed above or attached to a consonant letter to modify its inherent vowel, functioning as a dependent vocalic sign rather than an independent letter. It belongs to the Bhaiksuki block of the Unicode standard, which was added in version 9.0 to support the digital representation of this historical script.
