U+A836 "꠶" North Indic Quarter Mark is a typographic symbol used in the North Indic script family, particularly within the Syloti Nagri writing system for the Sylheti language, to indicate a fraction or a quarter measure. It resembles a simplified numeral or a diacritic-like mark and is designed to integrate within text to denote one fourth of a unit, often appearing in financial, commercial, or mathematical contexts where traditional numeric fraction notation may not be standard. This character is part of the larger Unicode block for Syloti Nagri, which was encoded to support the digital representation of this historically significant script used in northeastern India and Bangladesh.
