U+1DF0C "𝼌" Latin Small Letter Esh with Double Bar and Curl Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

𝼌

U+1DF0C "𝼌" Latin Small Letter Esh with Double Bar and Curl is a specialized phonetic symbol used primarily in the transcription of certain African languages, particularly within the contexts of the International Phonetic Alphabet or extended Latin script for linguistic documentation. This character represents a distinct sound that combines the base form of the "esh" (ʃ) with the addition of a double bar through the stem and a curl at the top, which modifies the articulation to denote a retroflex or otherwise non-standard fricative. It is part of the Unicode Latin Extended-G block, which was standardized to support lesser-known but crucial phonetic distinctions needed for accurate written representation of endangered or underdocumented languages.
