U+0324 "̤" Combining Diaeresis Below Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+0324 "̤" Combining Diaeresis Below is a diacritical mark used in various writing systems to modify the sound of a base letter by indicating a breathy or murmured voice quality, often applied in linguistic transcriptions such as the International Phonetic Alphabet for languages like Igbo or certain Indian scripts. This combining character is placed directly beneath a letter, as in the "n" with a diaeresis below (n̤) to represent a nasalized or breathy consonant, and it is distinct from the similar combining diaeresis above, as its position below the character allows for precise phonetic notation where the base letter’s shape must remain intact. It is encoded in Unicode’s Combining Diacritical Marks block and relies on proper rendering support from fonts and software to display correctly in digital text.
