Gujarati Vowel Sign Aa Letter Meaning
“ા” (GUJARATI VOWEL SIGN AA) is a vowel sign in the Gujarati script. Like many Indic vowel signs, it is typically written in relation to a consonant, changing the syllable’s vowel sound. In practice, you’ll see it attached to consonant letters to represent the “AA” vowel sound as part of a word’s pronunciation and spelling. Because it functions as a diacritic, it doesn’t usually stand alone like a full letter in normal writing; instead, it alters the vowel of the consonant it combines with. When copying or coding, matching the exact character and its Unicode code point (U+0ABE) ensures correct rendering.
