U+107A6 "𐞦" Modifier Letter Small Turned R with Long Leg Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

𐞦

U+107A6 "𐞦" Modifier Letter Small Turned R with Long Leg is a specialized diacritic mark used primarily in phonetic transcription, particularly within the context of the International Phonetic Alphabet extensions. Its distinctive form, a small superscript version of a turned lowercase r with an extended vertical leg, indicates a specific secondary articulation or modification of the preceding sound, often signaling retroflexion or a rhotic quality. This character is part of the Latin Extended G block, which was added to support underrepresented phonetics, and it helps linguists precisely document the subtle articulatory variations found in spoken languages, especially those that require notation for a turned r with a longer descender.
