グジャラート文字（グジャラーティー文字）

Gujarati is a Unicode block containing characters for writing the Gujarati language. In its original incarnation, the code points U+0A81..U+0AD0 were a direct copy of the Gujarati characters A1-F0 from the 1988 ISCII standard. The デーヴァナーガリー文字  0900–097F , ベンガル文字  0980–09FF , グルムキー文字  0A00–0A7F , オリヤー文字  0B00–0B7F , タミル文字  0B80–0BFF , テルグ文字  0C00–0C7F , カンナダ文字  0C80–0CFF , and マラヤーラム文字  0D00–0D7F blocks were similarly all based on their ISCII encodings.

The Gujarati script, which like all Nāgarī writing systems is strictly speaking an abugida rather than an alphabet, is used to write the Gujarati and Kutchi languages. It is a variant of Devanāgarī script differentiated by the loss of the characteristic horizontal line running above the letters and by a small number of modifications in the remaining characters. With a few additional characters, added for this purpose, the Gujarati script is also often used to write Sanskrit and Hindi. Gujarati numerical digits are also different from their Devanagari counterparts.
