U+0369 "ͩ" Combining Latin Small Letter D Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

ͩ

U+0369 "ͩ" Combining Latin Small Letter D is a diacritical mark used in historical and linguistic documentation, particularly within the International Phonetic Alphabet and older Latin script transcriptions, where it is placed above or below a base character to modify its pronunciation. This combining character represents a small, superscript version of the Latin letter D and is typically employed to indicate a specific phonetic nuance, such as a devoiced or lightly articulated d sound, in scholarly texts or medieval manuscript studies. It is part of the Combining Diacritical Marks block in Unicode, meaning it does not stand alone but is intended to combine with a preceding base character to form a composite glyph that preserves the integrity of the original phonetic notation.
