Source: Browser Default
U+110BA "𑂺" Kaithi Sign Nukta is a combining diacritical mark used in the Kaithi script, a historical writing system employed primarily for languages like Bhojpuri, Magahi, and Maithili in northern India. This nukta, appearing as a dot below a consonant character, serves to modify the pronunciation of the base letter, typically indicating a sound borrowed from Perso-Arabic or other non-native origins, such as representing a retroflex or fricative articulation that differs from the standard Kaithi consonant inventory. Its inclusion in Unicode allows for accurate digital representation and preservation of Kaithi texts, particularly in historical manuscripts and modern linguistic studies where precise phonetic transcription is essential.
