Unicode Version 17.0
ð‘´¡
U+11D21 "ð‘´¡" Masaram Gondi Letter Pha is a specific glyph within the Masaram Gondi script, which was designed in the early 20th century by Munshi Mangal Singh Masaram to write the Gondi language, a Dravidian language spoken primarily in central India. This character represents the aspirated consonant sound "pha," and it is part of a larger alphabet that was created to offer a distinct writing system for the Gondi people, separate from the Devanagari and Telugu scripts commonly used in the region. The inclusion of this character in Unicode allows for its digital representation and preservation, supporting the documentation and modern use of the Masaram Gondi script in electronic texts and communications.
