U+1D71 "ᵱ" Latin Small Letter P with Middle Tilde Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
ᵱ
U+1D71 "ᵱ" Latin Small Letter P with Middle Tilde is a phonetic symbol typically used in the context of the International Phonetic Alphabet or other linguistic transcription systems to represent a modified 'p' sound, often indicating a prenasalized or specifically articulated bilabial stop with a tilde placed through the middle of the letter. This character enables precise notation of speech sounds that differ from a standard voiceless bilabial plosive, and it is encoded in the Unicode standard under the Phonetic Extensions block to support specialized linguistic and academic writing. Its design and usage help linguists and phoneticians distinguish subtle variations in pronunciation across different languages and dialects.
