Telugu Digit One

Telugu Digit One at U+0C67 is the Telugu-script numeral for the value 1. It is part of the Telugu block and belongs to the decimal number category, alongside the other traditional Telugu digits used for writing numbers in the script. In practice, it appears in Telugu-language text when numbers are written with native digits rather than European digits. You may see it in page numbers, numbered lists, dates, prices, school materials, religious publications, calendars, and headings intended to have a fully Telugu typographic style. Modern Telugu newspapers, websites, forms, and technical material often use European digits instead, especially where keyboards, databases, or mixed-language content are involved. Native Telugu numerals remain useful for culturally styled typography, language education, manuscript transcription, and digitization of older printed works. It has the same numeric value as the digit 1 but is not the same character as the ASCII digit. That distinction matters for searching, data entry, and identifiers, where Telugu and European digits may look related in meaning but are treated as different text characters.
