What 𑊕 means
Enter U11295 through an editor's hexadecimal Unicode input.
The editor also needs a font with Multani coverage. If 𑊕 appears as an empty box or fallback shape, the font lacks support; the visible form is font-dependent.
What sound does 𑊕 represent?
It marks a tongue-curled nasal n in Multani writing.
This retroflex nasal is made with the tongue tip curled slightly back. The letter appears in Multani spellings of Seraiki and related regional speech.
Where did Multani come from?
It grew out of Landa writing in the Multan region.
Multani developed around Multan and in northern Sindh for routine and commercial writing. It later entered literary print when the Baptist Missionary Press made metal type for Christian books; its first documented printed book was a New Testament in 1819.
Printed and handwritten forms are recorded from 1819–1916, and Multani spelling changed during the first quarter of the 20th century. The script is related to Gurmukhi and more distantly to Khudawadi and Khojki. Arabic-based writing later became standard for Seraiki.
Historical and specialist: appropriate in Multani texts and the study of the script.

Questions people ask
1Why does 𑊕 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.
