ℹ️ About
The Thaana Letter Zaa (ޜ) is a technical codepoint within the Thaana script used for Dhivehi. Characterized as a voiced alveolar fricative /z/, it is part of the “Other Letter” (Lo) category. It requires Arabic Letter (AL) bidirectional shaping to maintain the script’s native right-to-left flow in digital interfaces.
⚠️ Note: Do not confuse with ޒ (U+0792: Thaana Letter Zaafu). ޜ is specifically used for the Arabic /z/ sound in localized contexts.
