U+0211 "ȑ" Latin Small Letter R with Double Grave Unicode Character
U+0211 "ȑ" Latin Small Letter R with Double Grave is a specialized letter used primarily in the Latin script for the phonetic transcription of certain Slavic languages, such as Serbo-Croatian and Slovenian, where it represents a long rising pitch accent on the vowel that follows the "r" rather than indicating a pronounced double grave accent on the consonant itself. Unlike a standard "r", this character combines the baseline letter with two stacked grave accents above it, serving as a diacritical notation in linguistic and scholarly contexts to mark prosodic tone. It is distinct from the similarly shaped capital form U+0210 and is encoded in Unicode primarily to support accurate representation in digital text, though it remains relatively rare in everyday writing.
