Ā, lowercase ā,

is a grapheme, a Latin A with a macron, is used in several orthographies.

In some languages Ā is used to denote a long A. Examples are the Baltic languages, Polynesian languages, some romanizations of Japanese (rōmaji), Persian, Pashto, Assyrian Neo-Aramaic (which represents a long A sound) and Arabic, and some Latin texts (especially for learners).

In Romanised Mandarin Chinese (pinyin) it is used to represent A spoken with a level high tone (first tone). It is used in some orthography-based transcriptions of English to represent the diphthong /eɪ/ (see Vowel length § Traditional long and short vowels in English orthography), and also in commercial names such as
Drāno
and Powerāde.

In the International Alphabet of Sanskrit Transliteration, Ā represents the open back unrounded vowel, आ, not to be confused with the similar Devanagari character for the mid central vowel, अ.

In the languages other than Sanskrit, Ā is sorted with other A's and is not considered a separate letter. The macron is only considered when sorting words that are otherwise identical. For example, in Māori, tāu (meaning your) comes after tau (meaning year), but before taumata (hill).

So if I did own a single character dot com, well I would be on the road for early retirement ;)

I am with eurorealtor. IDNs are not single character domains and outside of actual real word placements (like the german ones you mentioned) they dont sell.

With good reason. They are close to impossible to navigate to directly. Unless you invest in one of those rare official gibberish keyboards. But they are real expensive....

The domain make absolutely no sense, and the inquires could be even people who do not know what IDN is, or newbies domainers. Good luck tho.
