U+0236 "ȶ" Latin Small Letter T with Curl Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
ȶ
U+0236 "ȶ" Latin Small Letter T with Curl is a letter used primarily in some phonetic transcription systems, particularly those for the representation of certain Slavic or indigenous languages, where it often denotes a voiceless alveolar affricate or a palatalized t sound. Its distinctive curled hook at the bottom of the standard lowercase "t" sets it apart typographically, allowing linguists and language specialists to specify a subtle phonetic nuance not captured by the plain letter. Despite its niche utility, this character remains a part of the Latin Extended-B block, ensuring its availability in digital text for scholarly and orthographic purposes.
