Unicode Version 17.0

𑻦

U+11EE6 "𑻦" Makasar Letter Ta is a character from the Makasar script, a historically significant abugida used to write the Makassarese language of South Sulawesi, Indonesia, primarily in the pre-colonial and colonial eras before its replacement by the Latin alphabet. This particular letter represents the consonant sound "ta" (phonemic /t/), and like all characters in this script, it is part of a writing system derived from the Brahmi script via the Kawi script, featuring distinctive angular and curvilinear forms. The Makasar script was eventually adapted for the Buginese language and has seen a resurgence of interest in recent decades for cultural preservation and digital encoding, with this character being included in the Unicode Standard to support historical texts and modern typographic usage.
