U+1D3B "ᴻ" Modifier Letter Capital Reversed N Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+1D3B "ᴻ" Modifier Letter Capital Reversed N is a typographic symbol used primarily in phonetic transcription, specifically within the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) and other linguistic notation systems. This character represents a reversed, or mirrored, uppercase N, which serves as a modifier letter to indicate specific phonetic features such as nasalization or a particular place of articulation in certain languages. Unlike a standard uppercase N rotated 180 degrees, this reversed N is a distinct modifier letter that can alter the sound of a preceding or following base character in phonetic scripts. Though it is not commonly found in everyday text, it is an important tool for linguists and phoneticians who require precise representation of speech sounds in specialized academic or dictionary contexts.
