Source: Browser Default
U+0B43 "ୃ" Oriya Vowel Sign Vocalic R is a combining diacritical mark used in the Odia (formerly Oriya) script to represent a vocalic R sound, a syllabic consonant that functions as a vowel in Sanskrit-derived vocabulary. This character appears as a distinct symbol attached below a consonant letter (matra) to modify its inherent vowel sound into the short vocalic R. It is properly rendered only after base consonants and is part of a limited set of vocalic signs in Odia, reflecting the script's adaptation for precise phonetic transcription of classical and liturgical texts.
