Unicode Version 17.0
𚿽
U+1AFFD "𚿽" Katakana Letter Minnan Nasalized Tone-7 is a specialized typographic symbol used in the phonetic transcription of the Minnan language, particularly to indicate a specific nasalized tone contour (Tone-7) within extended katakana notation. This character is part of the “Katakana Phonetic Extensions” block in Unicode, which was added to represent sounds and tonal distinctions not found in standard Japanese katakana. Its design resembles a standard katakana character with a diacritic or modifier, allowing linguists and language learners to accurately transcribe the nuanced pronunciation of Minnan, a Sinitic language spoken in parts of China and Taiwan, in written form.
