Unicode Version 17.0

ԅ

U+0505 "ԅ" Cyrillic Small Letter Komi Zje is a specialized letter used in the Cyrillic script to represent a voiced fricative sound, specifically a palatalized or retroflex [ʑ] or a similar sibilant, found in the Komi language spoken in the Komi Republic of Russia. This character is part of the Cyrillic Extended-A block, designed to accommodate additional Cyrillic letters for non-Slavic languages, and it corresponds to the uppercase form U+0504. The Komi Zje is historically derived by modifying the standard Cyrillic letter Ze (З з) with a descender or tail, distinguishing it from similar characters and enabling the accurate writing of Komi phonological distinctions. Its inclusion in Unicode ensures digital representation and preservation of Komi orthography, supporting linguistic diversity in modern computing environments.
