What ੫ means
In a Punjabi number, it means five. In ੨੫, it marks the units.
Brahmi numerals are attested by the middle of the third century BCE. Gurmukhi was standardized from Landa, an earlier script used in Punjab, in the sixteenth century.
In 2026, Punjabi is generally written in Gurmukhi in East Punjab and Arabic script in West Punjab.
