U+11134 "𑄴" Chakma Maayyaa Unicode Character

U+11134 "𑄴" Chakma Maayyaa is a combining diacritical mark used in the Chakma script, an abugida employed to write the Chakma language spoken primarily in Bangladesh and India. This character specifically represents a virama, also known as a halant or killer stroke, which functions to suppress the inherent vowel of a preceding consonant, allowing for the formation of consonant clusters or final consonants without an accompanying vowel sound. In the Chakma writing system, the Maayyaa is placed below the consonant glyph to indicate that it should be read as a pure consonant, making it essential for accurately representing the phonetic structure of the language.
