U+1BAA "᮪" Sundanese Sign Pamaaeh Unicode Character

U+1BAA "᮪" Sundanese Sign Pamaaeh is a combining diacritical mark used in the Sundanese script of Indonesia, specifically functioning as a virama or killer stroke. Its primary role is to suppress the inherent vowel sound of a consonant, creating a conjunct or dead consonant final part of a syllable. Unlike the standard virama in some other Brahmic scripts, the Pamaaeh is placed above the consonant it modifies, rather than directly after it, and it is essential for correctly writing Sundanese text where consonant clusters or final consonants without a following vowel are needed.
