What 𑃳 means
It is Sora Sompeng’s decimal sign for the value three. The script’s digits run from 0–9; the spoken Sora word for “three” is written with letters rather than this numeral.
When was Sora Sompeng invented?
In 1936, Mangei Gomango devised the script.
Before its creation, Sora was written in Telugu, Odia, and Latin scripts. Sora Sompeng offered an alternative to those and to phonetic transcriptions used by missionary linguists.
The origin story begins with a vision of 24 letters. Sora Sompeng’s letter names draw on Sora deities, while 𑃳 belongs to a separate set of digits. The script is used in religious writing, education, and print.
How do I type 𑃳?
Use a Sora Sompeng input layout and a supporting font. Keyman lists its Sora Basic keyboard as an option as of 2026; the layout enters text, while the font displays it.
Sora Sompeng numbers run left to right, the same direction as the script’s writing.
Neutral as a number; it identifies a Sora Sompeng writing context.
