WAZU JAPAN's Gallery of Unicode Fonts

This page tests the Thaana Unicode block (U+0780 - U+07BF).

It is part of the Gallery of Unicode Fonts and is based on the following sources:

• The Unicode Standard (version 5.0.0)
• Peter T. Daniels & William Bright's The World's Writing Systems

Thaana is written right-to-left, similar to Arabic. Vowels are written as diacritics above and below the consonants.

pick the desired font name

The selected font must be installed on your system. This page might not display properly with older versions of Internet Explorer or Netscape. Additionally, Netscape & Firefox may show an unsupported character using a different font to the one selected. Internet Explorer seems to do this too, but to a much lesser extent.

Reserved/unallocated codepoints are shown with a gray background.

There are two sections presented below to test characters in the Thaana block:

• The first section shows combinations of characters to test actual usage of Thaana script.
  • Note that the letters used in column/row headings represent the Unicode designations, not necessarily how the letters would be transcribed using the Latin alphabet.
  • And some of the consonant/vowel combinations shown below may not actually be used.
     
• The second section is just the list of Thaana codepoints and is laid out in a grid format for easy comparison against the online Unicode charts.
  • Placing your cursor over any of the characters in the chart shows the codepoint and its name from the Unicode Character Database (Copyright © 1991-2006 Unicode, Inc). This may not work with some browsers.
  • Combining and non-spacing codepoints are preceded with a non-breaking space and are shown with a  dashed border
