U+065A "ٚ" Arabic Vowel Sign Small V Above is a combining diacritical mark used in Arabic script to represent a specific vocalic nuance, primarily in scholarly or orthographic transcriptions of the Quran or in linguistic notation. It appears as a small v-shaped symbol placed above an Arabic letter, indicating a short vowel sound that is distinct from the standard fatha, kasra, or damma, often corresponding to a variant pronunciation or an imitation of a particular reading tradition. This mark is part of the extended Arabic diacritical system and is typically employed in specialized texts rather than in everyday written Arabic.
