U+FE8A "" Arabic Letter Yeh with Hamza Above Final Form is a presentation form variant of the Arabic letter Yeh, which is used only in specific contexts within Arabic script. It represents the letter in its final form, meaning it appears when the character is at the end of a word, and includes a hamza diacritic placed above it to indicate a glottal stop. This shape is distinct from other positional forms of the same base letter, such as the initial, medial, or isolated variants, and is encoded separately in Unicode to support precise textual rendering in cursive scripts like Arabic.
