1. The sixteenth letter of the Acehnese alphabet, written in the Arabic script.

Etymology

Derived from ص (ṣ), and originally written as such (in rasm) by analogy with Nabatean tradition, as Nabatean cognates of Arabic words with /dˤ/ were indiscriminately spelled using 𐢙 (ṣ).

Note

• The sound that was represented by the letter ḍād in the Arabic alphabet when it was introduced around 700 AD is somewhat uncertain, but it is widely considered to have been a pharyngealised lateral fricative /ɮˤ/. Early on, its sound was merged with ظ (ẓ) /ðˤ/, a merger that is reflected in all colloquial dialects. In dialects with stopping of dental fricatives, both were then shifted further to /dˤ/. When the ability to produce the sound /ɮˤ/ waned some time after its loss from actual speech, the Quran readers reassigned the stop /dˤ/ to ض (ḍ) in order to maintain its distinction from ظ (ẓ).
