What ڀ means

Choose ڀ on a Sindhi keyboard layout.

Sindhi layouts include this dedicated letter among the extra characters that standard Arabic and Urdu layouts may not provide.

What sound does ڀ make?

It writes Sindhi’s breathy “bh” consonant.

Say b, then release it with a puff of air. Plain ب is an unaspirated b; ٻ is a different Sindhi consonant, an implosive b made with inward-moving air.

The Arabic-derived Sindhi writing standard was formalized in 1853 for administration and education. It developed alongside older Brahmi-based Landa-family scripts used in Sindh. Sindhi is also written in Devanagari, where भ represents the corresponding bh sound.

A spelling letter that contributes a consonant sound inside Sindhi words.
