CHAM CONSONANT SIGN YA is a spacing combining mark (positive advance width) from the Basic Multilingual Plane.

The bidi class of CHAM CONSONANT SIGN YA 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.

Spacing Mark (Mc) refers to marks that typically appear as separate characters in writing. Unlike nonspacing marks, spacing marks take up space in the text and may affect the placement of surrounding characters. They are often used in scripts like Devanagari to indicate vowel sounds.

This character belongs to the Cham block. The Cham block contains characters used in the Cham script, which is used for writing the Cham language spoken by the Cham people in Vietnam and Cambodia. The script is an abugida, where each consonant has an inherent vowel sound that can be modified by diacritics. The Cham script is one of the oldest in Southeast Asia, with inscriptions dating back to the 4th century CE. The script has been used for religious texts, poetry, and historical records. This block includes all the characters needed to write in Cham, reflecting the script’s importance in the cultural and religious heritage of the Cham people..
