U+0614 "ؔ" Arabic Sign Takhallus is a diacritical mark used in Arabic script, specifically in the writing of the Persian, Urdu, and Ottoman Turkish languages, to indicate a poetic pseudonym or pen name known as a "takhallus." It appears as a small, curved sign placed above a letter, typically at the end of a line of poetry, to signal that the preceding word is the artist's chosen nom de plume. This mark is a unique typographic tool that helps preserve the tradition of poets signing their work within the verse itself, distinguishing the pen name from the poem's main text, and it remains an important element in the study and reproduction of classical Islamic literary manuscripts.
