Unicode Version 17.0
𐞚
U+1079A "𐞚" Modifier Letter Small Lz Digraph is a specialized diacritical mark used in phonetic transcription, part of the Latin Extended-G block that supports the Teuthonista and other dialectological notation systems. It represents a modified letter derived from the digraph "lz" rendered in a small superscript form, functioning to indicate a specific phonetic nuance or secondary articulation within spoken sounds, often in recordings of Germanic dialects and linguistic fieldwork. This character allows scholars to precisely annotate subtle variations in speech that are not captured by standard letters, preserving detailed phonological data for analysis and comparison.
