U+FBDF "ﯟ" Arabic Letter Ve Final Form Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+FBDF "ﯟ" Arabic Letter Ve Final Form is a presentation form of the Arabic letter "Ve," which is used primarily in languages like Persian, Urdu, and Kurdish to represent the sound [v], a consonant not originally part of classical Arabic. This specific codepoint denotes the "final form" of the letter, meaning it appears only when Ve is the last character in a word, taking a distinct joining shape that connects to the preceding letter but not to any following one. It is part of the Arabic Presentation Forms-B block, included for compatibility with older text processing systems, and while it functions visually like a ligature, modern Unicode usage recommends the standard Arabic letter Ve (U+06CB) for general encoding with automatic shaping by fonts.
