U+06D2 "ے" Arabic Letter Yeh Barree is a distinct character used primarily in the Urdu script, where it represents the long vowel sound "e" or "ai," similar to the "ay" in "day." Unlike the standard Arabic letter Yeh (U+064A), which can serve as a consonant or vowel depending on context, the Yeh Barree is exclusively a vowel letter and is written in its isolated form without connecting to following letters in cursive script. It appears frequently at the end of words in Urdu, such as in "کے" (ke, meaning "of") or "ہے" (hai, meaning "is"), and its unique shape, with a curved tail and no initial or medial variants, distinguishes it in typography and digital text rendering.
