U+06C0 "ۀ" Arabic Letter Heh with Yeh Above is a composite glyph used in the Arabic script to represent a specific phonetic variant of the letter "heh," primarily found in the writing of languages such as Persian and Kurdish. This character combines the base form of the Arabic letter "heh" with a small superscript "yeh" diacritic above it, indicating a distinct sound or orthographic convention, often related to the izafet construction or vowel marking. It appears in Unicode as a precomposed form for compatibility and ease of use in digital text, and its inclusion supports accurate representation of certain linguistic features that are not covered by the base letter alone.
