Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+2D0F "ⴏ" Georgian Small Letter Zhar is a character from the Georgian script’s Nuskhuri or Khutsuri variant, representing a small letter form used historically in ecclesiastical writing. This letter corresponds to the tenth letter of the Georgian alphabet, pronounced as a voiced retroflex sibilant similar to the "zh" sound in the English word "measure". Unlike modern Mkhedruli script, these Nuskhuri forms are typically used in combination with capital Asomtavruli letters for religious manuscripts, where it was often employed as a header or initial letter. The character is encoded in the Unicode block for Georgian Supplement, which preserves these ancient letterforms for digital text representation and scholarly use.
