Unicode Version 17.0

𑲟

U+11C9F "𑲟" Marchen Subjoined Letter Pha is a writing system component used in the historical Marchen script, which was employed to write the Zhangzhung language of the ancient Shangshung kingdom in western Tibet. This character represents the consonant sound "pha" in a subjoined form, meaning it is designed to attach below another letter as part of a conjunct consonant cluster rather than standing alone. Its inclusion in Unicode supports digital encoding and preservation of the Marchen script, which is significant for scholarly research into the religious and cultural texts of the Bon tradition.
