Source: Browser Default
U+1CEE "ᳮ" Vedic Sign Hexiform Long Anusvara is a diacritical mark used in the Vedic Sanskrit tradition to denote a nasalization sound that is longer in duration than a standard anusvara. Its distinctive "hexiform" shape references a six sided or hexagonal form found in historical manuscripts, where it appears as part of the complex notation system for the Samaveda and other Vedic texts. This character belongs to the Vedic Extensions block and is primarily of interest to scholars of ancient Indian phonetics and script, as it helps preserve the precise oral recitation of sacred hymns.
