Source: Browser Default
U+0B02 "ଂ" Oriya Sign Anusvara is a diacritical mark used in the Oriya script, representing a nasalization or a homorganic nasal sound that follows a vowel or consonant within a syllable. It is not an independent letter but is typically placed above the character it modifies to indicate that the sound is pronounced with airflow through the nose, similar to the anusvara diacritic found in other Brahmi-derived scripts of South Asia. In the Oriya language, it helps distinguish word meanings and is essential for accurate pronunciation and writing in both modern and literary contexts.
