U+1926 "ᤦ" Limbu Vowel Sign Au is a combining diacritical mark used in the Limbu script, which is employed to write the Limbu language spoken primarily in Nepal, India, and Bhutan. This specific vowel sign is placed after a consonant character to modify its inherent vowel sound, representing the "au" diphthong, a vowel sound that glides from an "a" sound to a "u" sound. It is part of the Limbu alphabet's system of dependent vowel signs, which are essential for accurately writing Limbu words and preserving the phonetic nuances of the language, particularly in its traditional literature and modern digital texts.
