Source: Browser Default
U+115C0 "𑗀" Siddham Sign Nukta is a diacritical mark used in the Siddham script, a historical writing system primarily employed for writing Sanskrit and other languages in East Asia, particularly in Buddhist contexts. This nukta sign functions similarly to a dot below a consonant character, modifying its phonetic value by indicating a change in pronunciation, such as representing a borrowed or foreign sound not originally native to the Siddham inventory. It is an essential part of the script's orthography, especially in the transliteration of Sanskrit mantras and texts, and its inclusion in Unicode supports the accurate digital representation of Siddham documents for research, preservation, and scholarly study.
