U+11D79 "𑵹" Gunjala Gondi Letter Dha Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
𑵹
U+11D79 "𑵹" Gunjala Gondi Letter Dha is a character from the Gunjala Gondi script, which was historically used to write the Gondi language spoken by the Gond people in central and southern India. This specific letter represents the aspirated dental consonant sound "dha" (like the "dh" in "adhere") and is part of a script that was largely forgotten before being revived in recent years through community and academic efforts. Its inclusion in the Unicode Standard in version 10.0 (2018) helps preserve and digitally encode this endangered script, enabling its use in modern computing and communication.
