U+11A16 "𑨖" Zanabazar Square Letter Dda is a symbol from the Zanabazar Square script, an abugida historically used in Tibetan Buddhist contexts for writing the Mongolian, Tibetan, and Sanskrit languages.

The square, geometric forms of these letters were designed to create a visually balanced and sacred aesthetic for religious texts.
