U+06B1 "ڱ" Arabic Letter Ngoeh is a distinct letter used primarily in the Arabic script for languages of South and Central Asia, such as Sindhi, Saraiki, and occasionally Pashto, where it represents a velar nasal sound, similar to the English "ng" in "song." This character is formed by adding three dots above a base Arabic letter, typically derived from the letter "گ" or "ك," to indicate its unique phonetic value not found in standard Arabic. Its inclusion in Unicode ensures proper digital representation and text processing for these regional languages, preserving their linguistic identity in modern computing systems.
