U+1D02 "ᴂ" Latin Small Letter Turned Ae Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+1D02 "ᴂ" Latin Small Letter Turned Ae is a typographic variant of the standard Latin letter æ, created by rotating the character 180 degrees, and it has historically been used in phonetic transcription and linguistic notation, particularly in early versions of the International Phonetic Alphabet to represent a near-open front unrounded vowel sound, similar to the vowel in the English word "cat" but with a slightly different quality, though it is now considered obsolete in modern IPA usage.
