U+1880 "ᢀ" Mongolian Letter Ali Gali Anusvara One Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+1880 "ᢀ" Mongolian Letter Ali Gali Anusvara One is a glyph used in the Mongolian script, specifically within the Ali Gali system, which was developed to transcribe foreign sounds, particularly from Sanskrit and Tibetan, into Mongolian writing. This character represents a type of anusvara, a diacritical mark employed to indicate nasalization, and it is classified as a combining mark that modifies the pronunciation of a preceding vowel or consonant. It is part of the larger Mongolian block in Unicode, designed to support historical and liturgical texts where precise phonetic representation is necessary. The inclusion of U+1880 helps preserve the accurate transcription of Buddhist and other religious manuscripts that rely on the Ali Gali variant characters.
