KHOJKI SIGN VIRAMA is a spacing combining mark (positive advance width) from the Supplementary Multilingual Plane.

The bidi class of KHOJKI SIGN VIRAMA 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 Khojki block. The Khojki block contains characters used in the Khojki script, which was historically used by the Khoja community in South Asia for religious literature, particularly in the context of Ismaili Islam. The script is an abugida, with each consonant carrying an inherent vowel sound that can be modified with diacritics. The Khojki script was primarily used for writing Ginans, which are devotional hymns in the Ismaili tradition. This block includes all the characters needed to write in Khojki, reflecting its significance in the religious and cultural heritage of the Khoja community..
