About this character

U+FB49 (שּ) is HEBREW LETTER SHIN WITH DAGESH, a letter in the Alphabetic Presentation Forms block. It belongs to the Hebrew script. It was added in Unicode 1.1 (1993).

It is precomposed. Under NFD it decomposes into U+05E9 ש + U+05BC ◌ּ, and NFC recombines that sequence into this single codepoint, so both spellings are canonically equivalent and should compare equal after normalization. See the normalization guide.

It is a strong right-to-left character (bidirectional class R), so it sets the direction of the text around it. See bidirectional text.
