U+05DF "ן" Hebrew Letter Final Nun Unicode Character
Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+05DF "ן" Hebrew Letter Final Nun is the contextual or final form of the Hebrew letter Nun, used exclusively at the end of a word in Hebrew script. In the Hebrew alphabet, Nun (נ) represents the sound /n/, and its final form, which extends below the baseline, is a mandatory scribal variant that occurs only in word-final position. This character is categorized under Unicode Block U+0590 to U+05FF (Hebrew) and has been part of the Unicode Standard since version 1.1. Its presence is essential for proper Hebrew text rendering, as substituting the regular Nun for the final form would be grammatically incorrect.
