U+AA43 "ꩃ" Cham Consonant Sign Final Ng is a diacritical mark used in the Cham script, primarily for writing the Cham language spoken by the Cham people of Cambodia and Vietnam. This sign is specifically a final consonant modifier, indicating a velar nasal sound "ng" at the end of a syllable, and it is placed below or in connection with a base consonant character to denote that the syllable concludes with this nasal sound. As part of the Cham alphabet, which is an abugida derived from Brahmi script, this sign helps distinguish the pronunciation and meaning of words by clarifying the presence of a final nasal consonant, contributing to the accurate representation of the language’s phonology.
