U+050B "ԋ" Cyrillic Small Letter Komi Nje Unicode Character

U+050B "ԋ" Cyrillic Small Letter Komi Nje is a unique letter used in the Cyrillic script for the Komi language, specifically representing a palatalized nasal sound. Unlike the standard Cyrillic "н" (en), this character carries a distinct shape with a descender or hook, modifying its phonetic value to denote the soft n sound common in Komi phonology. It is part of the Cyrillic Extended-B block, which was added to Unicode to support various minority languages of Russia. This letter is the lowercase form of its uppercase counterpart, U+050A "Ԋ", and is essential for accurate orthography in written Komi, helping to distinguish words and sounds that would otherwise be ambiguous with standard Cyrillic letters.
