ݕ
U+0755 "ݕ" Arabic Letter Beh with Inverted Small V Below is a specialized Arabic script character used primarily in African languages, such as Hausa, Fulfulde, and other languages written in the Ajami adaptation of the Arabic alphabet. It represents a voiced bilabial implosive sound, distinct from the standard Arabic "beh," by adding a diacritical mark shaped like an inverted small "v" beneath the base letter. This character is part of the Arabic Supplement block and serves to accurately transcribe phonetic distinctions not found in Classical Arabic.
