WANCHO TONE TUPNI is a nonspacing combining mark (zero advance width) from the Supplementary Multilingual Plane.

The bidi class of WANCHO TONE TUPNI is Nonspacing Mark (Weak). It belongs to the non-spacing marks, which take on the directionality of the characters to which they attach..

The Nonspacing Mark (NSM) bidi class is assigned to diacritical marks that do not occupy their own space but modify the preceding base character. NSMs are neutral in directionality but inherit the directionality of the base character they are attached to. They are essential for the accurate representation of characters with diacritics in bidirectional text.

Nonspacing Mark (Mn) refers to diacritical marks that do not occupy their own space but instead combine with a preceding base character to modify its sound or meaning. Nonspacing marks are essential in many scripts, including Latin, Arabic, and Devanagari, for accurate representation of text.

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..
