U+1191F "𑤟" Dives Akuru Letter Na Unicode Character

U+1191F "𑤟" Dives Akuru Letter Na is a glyph from the Dives Akuru script, an ancient Brahmic writing system historically used in the Maldives and parts of coastal Sri Lanka, where it represents the consonant sound "na." This character forms part of the Dives Akuru block in Unicode, which was added to the standard in January 2022 as part of version 14.0 to preserve and digitally encode this endangered script. The letter Na is written with a distinctive curved stroke and functions as a syllabic unit in the Dives Akuru abugida, typically carrying an inherent vowel that can be modified by diacritical marks. Its inclusion in Unicode aids scholars, linguists, and modern communities in reviving the script for historical documentation and cultural heritage projects.
