U+1E005 "𞀅" Combining Glagolitic Letter Yestu is a combining diacritical mark used in the Glagolitic script, an early Slavic alphabet created by Saints Cyril and Methodius in the 9th century. This specific character is designed to be placed above or over another Glagolitic base letter to modify its phonetic value, representing the sound associated with the letter Yestu. As part of the combining Glagolitic characters block, it serves scholarly and liturgical purposes, particularly in the transcription of Old Church Slavonic texts, and is distinct from non combining versions to allow for precise textual encoding in digital environments.
