Unicode Block - Syriac Supplement

Unicode Version 18.0

Syriac Supplement is a collection of additional characters that extend the core Syriac script, primarily used for writing various dialects and liturgical texts of the Syriac language, including those not fully covered by the main Syriac block. It contains letters and diacritical marks that represent phonetic distinctions and historical orthographic forms found in classical and modern usage, such as the letters for the sounds of certain vowels and consonants that appear in Syriac-influenced languages like Garshuni or in scholarly transliterations. These characters are encoded separately to provide clearer support for specialized textual needs, ensuring that both traditional and contemporary Syriac manuscripts can be accurately represented in digital form.
