SIDDHAM VOWEL SIGN II is a spacing combining mark (positive advance width) from the Supplementary Multilingual Plane.

The bidi class of SIDDHAM VOWEL SIGN II 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 Siddham block. The Siddham block contains characters used in the Siddham script, which was historically used for writing Sanskrit and Buddhist texts in East Asia. The script is an abugida, with each consonant carrying an inherent vowel sound that can be modified with diacritics. The Siddham script was used from the 6th to the 12th centuries CE, particularly in Japan and China, where it was employed in the copying of sacred texts and mantras. This block includes all the characters needed to write in Siddham, reflecting its importance in the religious and cultural traditions of East Asian Buddhism..
