multani letter bha

Multani letter bha

𑊟 is the consonant letter bha in the historical Multani script, used to write Saraiki. Multani served ordinary and commercial writing and later appeared in Christian books; printed and handwritten letter shapes can differ because the script has no single standard form.

What 𑊟 means

It writes the bha consonant in Multani.

Multani grew from Landa merchant writing traditions and served routine and commercial writing. It is related to Gurmukhi, and more distantly to Khudawadi and Khojki. A Multani/Saraiki translation of the Lord’s Prayer, a Christian prayer, survives in a 1730s document; the script’s first printed book was the New Testament in 1819. In the late 19th century, British administration made Arabic script standard for Sindh, helping Multani fall out of regular use. Printed and handwritten forms differ, and fonts may preserve those variants because Multani has no single standard letterform.

It belongs to written Multani, so its context is script or historical-text typography.

Why does 𑊟 show as a box on some devices?

Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
