U+1A65 "ᩥ" Tai Tham Vowel Sign I Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
ᩥ
U+1A65 "ᩥ" Tai Tham Vowel Sign I is a combining diacritical mark used in the Tai Tham script, which historically serves the Tai Yuan, Lanna, and related languages of Northern Thailand, Laos, and parts of Myanmar. This vowel sign, placed above a consonant, represents the short vowel sound "i" and is an essential element in the script’s complex orthography, where it modifies the inherent vowel of a base character. As part of the Tai Tham block in Unicode, it enables the digital preservation and representation of this traditional writing system, supporting cultural and linguistic documentation for communities that still use or study this historic script.
