Source: Browser Default
U+08B6 "ࢶ" Arabic Letter Beh with Small Meem Above is a specialized Arabic script character used primarily in certain African languages, such as Ajami scripts, to represent a consonant sound that combines a 'b' sound with a small diacritic 'meem' above to indicate a prenasalized or bilabial nasalized variant, often resembling a 'mb' pronunciation; it was added to the Unicode Standard in its Extended Arabic-A block to support accurate transcription and digital preservation of these languages without relying on complex diacritic stacking.
