MAKASAR PASSIMBANG is a punctuation mark of other type from the Supplementary Multilingual Plane.

The bidi class of MAKASAR PASSIMBANG 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 Punctuation (Po) refers to all other punctuation marks that do not fit into the connector, dash, open, close, initial, or final categories. This includes characters like the period, comma, colon, and various other symbols used to structure sentences and phrases.

This character belongs to the Makasar block. The Makasar script was historically used on the island of Sulawesi, Indonesia, by the Makassarese people. It is part of the broader family of Brahmic scripts that spread across South and Southeast Asia, influenced by the spread of Hinduism and Buddhism. The script was used primarily for writing Old Makassarese and religious texts until it was replaced by the Latin alphabet during the Dutch colonial period. The Unicode block for Makasar helps ensure that this script, like many others in Indonesia, is preserved for future generations. Scholars, cultural activists, and linguists now have the tools to digitally encode and study Makasar texts, which are important for understanding the region’s rich history, including its pre-Islamic and Islamic periods..
