U+11C34 "𑰴" Bhaiksuki Vowel Sign Vocalic R Unicode Character

U+11C34 "𑰴" Bhaiksuki Vowel Sign Vocalic R is a combining diacritical mark used in the Bhaiksuki script, an ancient Brahmic writing system historically employed to write Sanskrit and other related languages. This specific vowel sign represents the vocalic "R" sound, which functions as a syllabic consonant or vowel in Sanskrit phonology, and it is placed after a consonant character to modify its inherent vowel to this vocalic R value. The Bhaiksuki script, including this character, was added to the Unicode Standard in 2015 as part of version 8.0 to preserve and enable digital representation of this historical script primarily found in manuscripts from the Himalayan region.
