Source: Browser Default
U+1193E "𑤾" Dives Akuru Virama is a combining mark used in the Dives Akuru script, an ancient writing system historically employed in the Maldives islands to write the Dhivehi language. This virama functions as a vowel killer, canceling the inherent vowel of a consonant character and indicating a pure consonant or a conjunct formation. The character is visually represented as a small, raised or attached diacritic sign, and it is encoded in the Unicode Dives Akuru block to support modern digital representation and preservation of this historic script for scholarly and cultural purposes.
