'''Armenian''' is a [[Unicode block]] containing characters for writing the [[Armenian language]], both the traditional Western Armenian and reformed Eastern Armenian orthographies. Five Armenian ligatures are encoded in the [[Alphabetic Presentation Forms]] block.

The block includes the [[Armenian eternity sign]], which has been encoded in 7-bit and 8-bit [[ArmSCII]] and ad hoc encodings since at least 1987. It was unencoded of long time by unknown reason, In 2010 the Armenian National Institute of Standards suggested encoding an Armenian Eternity sign in the [[Unicode]] character set,<ref name=SARM>{{cite web|title=Armenian Eternity Sign|url=https://www.unicode.org/L2/L2010/10372-n3921.pdf|publisher=[[Unicode]]|pages=10–12|year=2010}}</ref> and both right-facing and left-facing Armenian eternity signs were included in Unicode version 7.0.<ref>{{cite web|title=Unicode: Armenian|url=https://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/Unicode-7.0/U70-0530.pdf|access-date=2014-06-27}}</ref>
