U+0999 "ঙ" Bengali Letter Nga is a distinct consonant in the Bengali script that represents the velar nasal sound, similar to the "ng" in the English word "sing." It is the fifth consonant in the Bengali abugida and is used primarily in the middle or end of syllables, often before other velar consonants like ক (ka) or গ (ga). This character has a unique circular diacritic form when used as a conjunct, but it is relatively rare in modern Bengali vocabulary, appearing mostly in words of Sanskrit origin or in transliterations of foreign terms.
