U+1133C "𑌼" Grantha Sign Nukta is a combining diacritical mark used in the Grantha script, primarily employed to represent sounds borrowed from other languages, such as Sanskrit, that are not native to the Grantha phonetic inventory. This nukta is placed beneath a base consonant to alter its pronunciation, enabling the script to accurately transliterate foreign sounds, particularly in religious and scholarly texts. It functions similarly to the nukta found in Devanagari and other South Asian scripts, serving as a vital tool for linguistic precision in written Grantha.
