Joining Group - Manichaean Sadhe

Manichaean Sadhe is a character from the Manichaean script, a right-to-left writing system used for religious texts. Its joining group value indicates that it behaves as a standalone, non-connecting letter in cursive text, meaning it does not link to adjacent characters in a word. This positional feature distinguishes it from letters that form continuous ligatures, reflecting its phonetic role as a sibilant consonant. In practice, when rendering Manichaean words, this character appears with isolated forms on both sides, preserving clarity in sacred writings.
