U+0C4A "ొ" Telugu Vowel Sign O Unicode Character

U+0C4A "ొ" Telugu Vowel Sign O is a combining diacritical mark used in the Telugu script to represent the vowel sound "O," which is longer and more rounded than the short vowel "o." When attached to a consonant or consonant cluster, this sign modifies the inherent vowel "a" to the vowel "O," appearing as a small loop-like symbol above the consonant character. In the process of typing or rendering Telugu text, the vowel sign is input after the consonant it modifies, and it combines with the base character to form a correct syllabic unit, essential for accurate representation of Telugu words.
