U+FEE3 "ﻣ" Arabic Letter Meem Initial Form Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+FEE3 "ﻣ" Arabic Letter Meem Initial Form is a presentation form of the Arabic letter Meem, specifically designed to connect from the right side to the following letter within a word, as part of the Arabic script’s context-sensitive shaping system. This character appears in the Unicode Arabic Presentation Forms-B block and is primarily intended for legacy text processing or specialized rendering contexts, as modern Unicode fonts automatically generate this initial form from the base letter Meem (U+0645) based on its position in a word. The initial form of Meem is characterized by a compact, rounded body with a short, forward-extending tail that prepares it for a right-to-left cursive connection, distinguishing it from the isolated, final, or medial variants.
