Unicode Version 17.0
ᢑ
U+1891 "ᢑ" Mongolian Letter Ali Gali Da is a specialized letter used in the Mongolian script to represent a sound from the Ali Gali alphabet, which was historically employed for transcribing Tibetan, Sanskrit, and other foreign words into Mongolian. This particular character corresponds to the voiced dental stop sound "da" and was created as part of an extended set of Mongolian letters to accurately render non-native phonetic elements in religious and scholarly texts. Its inclusion in Unicode helps preserve the linguistic heritage of Mongolian literature, especially in Buddhist and transliteration contexts, where precise and unique graphemes are essential for authentic representation.
