Source: Browser Default
U+0CA0 "ಠ" Kannada Letter Ttha is a character from the Kannada script, used primarily in the Kannada language of southern India. It represents the aspirated voiceless retroflex plosive sound, often romanized as "ṭha," and is a distinct letter in the Kannada syllabary. Visually, the character resembles a pair of wide, raised eyebrows or an unimpressed face, which has led to its widespread adoption in internet culture as an emoticon for expressing disbelief, frustration, or disapproval. While its formal linguistic role is specific to written Kannada, its iconic shape has given it a secondary, modern life as a symbol of online expression.
