Source: Browser Default
U+A99C "ꦜ" Javanese Letter Tta Mahaprana is a character used in the Javanese script to represent the aspirated consonant "ṭṭa," which is a retroflex voiceless stop with a strong breathy release, distinguished from the unaspirated "ṭṭa" letter in traditional Javanese orthography for writing Sanskrit and Old Javanese loanwords. It is part of the Javanese script block that encodes the pre-colonial abugida used for the Javanese language, though its use in modern contexts is primarily limited to scholarly, religious, or ceremonial texts. The letter visually resembles other Javanese characters in its rounded, cursive style, with a unique diacritic-like element indicating the aspirated quality.
