Script - Mro

Mro is a Unicode script value representing the Mro language, spoken by the Mro people primarily in the Chittagong Hill Tracts of Bangladesh and parts of Myanmar. It encodes the Mro alphabet, which is a left-to-right script with 20 consonant letters, 5 vowel marks, and a final consonant marker, used for writing the language’s distinct phonetic and tonal features. The script was developed in the 1980s and has a small but active user community, with Unicode support enabling digital text processing, including typing, rendering, and search. Its characters include unique diacritics and punctuation, allowing accurate representation of Mro’s syllable structure and vowel harmony. The script’s inclusion in digital standards helps preserve and promote the language, facilitating literacy, documentation, and communication for its speakers.
