Following table shows the character set for Bangla/Bengali domain name. Some characters are not allowed because of phishing problem. Reason to choice of each character is explained in the “Reason of Choice” and “Remarks” columns. Contextual rule added for ZWJ as it is required in one of the context of Bangla. For example র্যাব/RAB.
Since representing hasant (virama) in domain name will make phishing problem in domain name so we are not allowing ZWNJ in domain name. For example:
[Consonant] + 09CD + ZWNJ + [Consonant]
In Bengali script, consonant followed by hasant (09CD) followed by consonant makes a new glyph.
But we also can write this in the following way
The output of these two forms is the same in respect to meaning other than visual representations
Contextual rule for ZWJ: 09B0 + 200D (ZWJ) + 09CD + 09AF
