Source: Noto Sans Syriac Source: Browser Default

U+0716 "ܖ" Syriac Letter Dotless Dalath Rish is a unique glyph from the Syriac script, specifically representing a consonant sound that can be interpreted as either a dalath or a rish without their distinguishing diacritical dot. It is part of the Syriac block in Unicode and is used in certain historical or linguistic contexts where the dot is omitted, often in classical or manuscript forms of Syriac writing. This character helps preserve the ambiguity or phonetic flexibility of the sound in specific textual traditions, distinguishing it from the standard dotted forms of dalath and rish.
