U+1D3D "ᴽ" Modifier Letter Capital Ou Unicode Character

U+1D3D "ᴽ" Modifier Letter Capital Ou is a typographic symbol used primarily in phonetic transcription, specifically in the context of the Uralic Phonetic Alphabet, where it represents a modified version of the capital letter Ou from the Latin script. It functions as a modifier letter, meaning it is designed to alter or refine the pronunciation of the preceding character, typically indicating a specific sound quality or a slight variation in vowel articulation.
