U+1D40 "ᵀ" Modifier Letter Capital T Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+1D40 "ᵀ" Modifier Letter Capital T is a superscript form of the uppercase Latin letter T, specifically classified as a modifier letter used primarily in phonetic transcription systems such as the Uralic Phonetic Alphabet. It functions to indicate a secondary articulation, a reduced sound, or a particular phonetic feature applied to the preceding base letter, often representing a voiceless dental or alveolar plosive with a certain quality. This character is not a full-fledged letter but a diacritic-like symbol that modifies the pronunciation of an adjacent character, and it is encoded in the Unicode block for Spacing Modifier Letters. Its design retains the familiar shape of a capital T but in a smaller, raised position, allowing it to integrate seamlessly with other text in linguistic notation.
