BOPOMOFO LETTER R is other letters, including syllables and ideographs from the Basic Multilingual Plane.

The bidi class of BOPOMOFO LETTER R is Left-to-Right (Strong). It belongs to the strong left-to-right characters..

The Left-to-Right (L) bidi class is assigned to characters that are written from left to right. This includes most alphabetic characters from Latin, Greek, Cyrillic, and other scripts that are typically written in this direction. The presence of L characters in a text influences the overall text directionality in bidirectional contexts.

Other Letter (Lo) refers to letters that do not fit into the uppercase, lowercase, titlecase, or modifier letter categories. These include letters from scripts that do not have case distinction, such as Arabic, Hebrew, Chinese, and others. This category is also used for syllabic and ideographic characters that function as letters.

This character belongs to the Bopomofo block. The Bopomofo block contains characters used in the Bopomofo script, also known as Zhuyin. This script is used primarily in Taiwan for teaching the pronunciation of Mandarin Chinese. Bopomofo consists of 37 phonetic symbols, representing the basic sounds of Mandarin. These symbols are used in dictionaries, language textbooks, and are sometimes seen in Chinese language input methods on computers. Bopomofo is an essential tool in Chinese language education, particularly in helping children and non-native speakers learn the correct pronunciation of Mandarin characters..
