The bidi class of WANCHO NGUN SIGN is European Number Terminator (Weak). It belongs to the punctuation marks used with numbers, like the degree sign or currency symbols. Treated like digits when they occur as part of a number and like punctuation the rest of the time..

The European Terminator (ET) bidi class includes characters such as currency symbols ($, €, £) and other punctuation marks that typically appear alongside European numbers.

This character belongs to the Wancho block. The Wancho script is used by the Wancho people, an indigenous group from northeastern India, particularly in the state of Arunachal Pradesh. The script was developed in the early 21st century by local community members and linguists in an effort to preserve the Wancho language, which was previously written using the Latin alphabet or not written at all. The creation of the Wancho script is part of a broader effort to revitalize the language and ensure that it remains a living part of the community’s cultural identity. The inclusion of the Wancho script in Unicode is crucial for this revitalization, as it allows for the digital encoding of the language, making it possible to create educational materials, literature, and digital content in the script. By providing a standard for the script in Unicode, the block supports the community’s efforts to preserve their language for future generations, ensuring that it can be taught and used in both print and digital media..
