U+0355 "͕" Combining Right Arrowhead Below Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

͕

U+0355 "͕" Combining Right Arrowhead Below is a combining diacritical mark used in the Latin script, designed to be placed beneath a base letter to modify its phonetic value, typically indicating a specific articulatory feature such as a rightward direction or movement of the tongue or lips in linguistic transcription. It belongs to the Combining Diacritical Marks block and is rarely encountered in standard text, finding its primary use in specialized fields like phonetics, historical linguistics, or orthographic notation systems where precise phonetic detail is required. This character does not stand alone and will only display correctly when combined with a preceding base character, effectively appearing as a small arrowhead pointing to the right positioned below the letter.
