U+1E01B "𞀛" Combining Glagolitic Letter Shta Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+1E01B "𞀛" Combining Glagolitic Letter Shta is a diacritical mark used in the Glagolitic script, an ancient Slavic alphabet devised by Saints Cyril and Methodius. As a combining character, it is designed to be placed above or attached to a base Glagolitic letter to modify its sound, specifically representing the phonetic value of the consonant cluster "sht" similar to the English "sh" in "shock" but with a sharper "t" release. This character belongs to the Glagolitic Supplement block and is utilized in liturgical and scholarly texts to accurately transcribe Old Church Slavonic, where the Glagolitic script retains historical and religious significance. Unlike standalone letters, it does not appear in isolation but instead merges with a preceding character to form a composite glyph, aiding in the precise representation of Slavic phonology in digital environments.
