U+A88F "ꢏ" Saurashtra Letter O Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
ꢏ
U+A88F "ꢏ" Saurashtra Letter O is a glyph from the Saurashtra script, an abugida historically used to write the Saurashtra language, primarily spoken in the Tamil Nadu region of India. This character represents the vowel sound "o" and is a part of a Unicode block that was added to the standard in version 5.1 released in 2008, enabling digital representation and preservation of this endangered script. Its use is largely confined to religious, cultural, and educational contexts, as the Saurashtra language has seen a decline in everyday written communication.
