ݨ
Additional letter of the Arabic script
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
ݨ, (Arabic letter noon with small tah (U+0768), ṇūṇ), is an additional letter of the Arabic script,[1] not used in the Arabic alphabet itself but used in Shahmukhi Punjabi, and Shina to represent a retroflex nasal consonant, [ɳ].
ڼ is the twenty-ninth letter of Pashto alphabet. It represents the retroflex nasal letter (IPA: [ɳ]) or Ṇ in Latin Alphabets, which is ण in Devanagari and ਣ in Gurmukhi.[2] In Sindhi, ڻ is used.

The Unicode for the letter ݨ was approved in 2005 and is used since version 4.1.[3] Shahmukhi uses the letter ⟨ݨ⟩ for /ɳ/. Previously, ڑن was used to represent a voiced retroflex nasal.
It is a compound of nūn and ṛe ⟨ڑ⟩, for example:
- کݨ مݨ، چھݨ چھݨ۔
