U+11804 "𑠄" Dogra Letter U Unicode Character

U+11804 "𑠄" Dogra Letter U is a glyph from the Dogra script, a historical Brahmic abugida used primarily to write the Dogri language in the Jammu region of northern India. This specific character represents the vowel sound "u," as in the "oo" in "boot," and is part of a script that was widely employed for administrative and literary purposes from the 18th to the 20th centuries before falling into disuse. The addition of this character to the Unicode Standard in 2018 under the Dogra block ensures its digital preservation, supporting the revival and scholarly study of this endangered script and the associated Dogri language and cultural heritage.
