01 · The Bengali block

96 characters in U+0980–U+09FF.

The Bengali block also carries Assamese: ৰ (ra) and ৱ (wa) are Assamese letters. Bengali has the khanda-ta ৎ, the dotted letters ড় ঢ় য় (U+09DC, 09DD, 09DF, which normalise to a base letter plus the nukta ়) and the signs ং (anusvara), ঃ (visarga) and ঁ (candrabindu). Many conjuncts like ক্ষ and জ্ঞ are built with the hasanta (্).

02 · Building words

How Bengali words are made of characters.

Each word below is a sequence of code points. Vowel signs and the virama attach to the letter before them, which is why one visible character can be several code points.

04 · FAQ

Questions about bengali unicode character pad

How do I type Bengali characters that aren’t on my keyboard?

Click them on this pad: each click inserts the character where your cursor is, and you can then copy the whole text. For Bengali typing you can also use your phone’s Bengali keyboard or an input method on your computer; this pad is best for single characters, signs and symbols.

What is U+0980?

Bengali is the Unicode block U+0980–U+09FF. Every Bengali character has a code point in that range, shown as U+ followed by four hex digits. The block currently has 96 assigned characters (Unicode 16.0).

Why do some characters show with a dotted circle?

Vowel signs, the virama and other marks never stand alone: they attach to the letter before them. The pad draws a dotted circle ◌ as a placeholder so you can see the mark; only the sign itself is inserted. Click it after a consonant to attach it.

How do I use the HTML entity or JavaScript escape?

Select a character to see its codes. Use the HTML entity (क) in web pages or emails where you can’t type the character, and the JavaScript escape (\u0915) in code or JSON. Both give the exact same character.

Is anything uploaded?

No. The pad runs in your browser and your text stays on your device.
