Unicode Block - Kannada
Kannada is a script used to write the Kannada language, primarily spoken in the southwestern Indian state of Karnataka, and it also serves for additional languages like Tulu and Konkani. The characters within this range include vowels, consonant-vowel combinations, independent vowel signs, and various diacritical marks that modify consonant sounds, alongside numerals and punctuation specific to the writing system. It also features special symbols for sacred syllables, such as the om sign, and historical or ritualistic characters, making it a comprehensive set for both modern and classical textual needs. Its design reflects a rounded, cursive style that evolved from ancient Brahmi, ensuring clarity in both handwritten and printed forms while supporting accurate phonetic representation of the Dravidian language family.
