U+11161 "𑅡" Mahajani Letter Ddha Unicode Character

U+11161 "𑅡" Mahajani Letter Ddha is a specific glyph from the Mahajani script, an ancient and now largely extinct writing system historically used primarily by traders and merchants in northern India and parts of Pakistan for accounting, legal, and commercial documents. This character represents a voiced aspirated retroflex plosive consonant sound, pronounced like the "ddh" in the English word "madhouse" but with the tongue curled back in the retroflex position. Mahajani was a simplified and cursive script that often wrote consonants without inherent vowels, and this letter would have been employed in writing words in languages such as Marwari, Hindi, and Punjabi during its period of active use, which roughly spanned from the 11th to the 20th century.
