Oriya Letter Kha Letter Meaning

“ଖ” is the Oriya letter Kha (Unicode name: ORIYA LETTER KHA). In practice, it functions as a consonant letter within the Oriya writing system, used as part of forming syllables in words. Like other letters in an abugida script, it may appear alongside other marks and characters depending on the word’s spelling and pronunciation. When used in plain text, it should render correctly as long as the selected font supports Oriya characters. For consistent results on websites and in apps, prefer the Unicode code point U+0B16 (or the provided escapes) rather than visually similar characters from other scripts.

Common uses

  • •Typing or entering Oriya/Odia text in documents and editors
  • •Rendering Oriya names, places, or proper nouns in web content
  • •Preparing subtitles, captions, or transcripts for Oriya media
  • •Designing UI labels or typography samples that require Oriya letters
  • •Programming and localization tasks that need the exact Unicode character
