Unicode Version 17.0
Ț
U+021A "Ț" Latin Capital Letter T with Comma Below is a Latin script letter used primarily in the Romanian and Moldovan alphabets to represent the voiceless alveolar affricate sound, similar to the "ts" in "cats." It consists of a capital T with a small comma-shaped diacritic placed beneath it, distinguishing it from the similar but separate character T with cedilla. This letter is encoded in the Unicode standard to ensure consistent digital representation across platforms and languages, and it is typically used in proper nouns, loanwords, and specific Romanian words where the sound occurs.
