Unicode Version 17.0

𞀷

U+1E037 "𞀷" Modifier Letter Cyrillic Small Ze is a modifier letter from the Cyrillic Extended-D block, representing a small, superscript version of the Cyrillic letter Ze (з) used to denote specific phonetic modifications in linguistic or scholarly transcriptions. This character functions as a diacritic-like mark applied to base letters to indicate a palatalized, fricative, or other nuanced sound shift that may not be captured by standard Cyrillic orthography. It is part of a larger set of modifier letters designed for precise representation in Slavic and non-Slavic languages when documenting archaic dialects, phonology, or typographical conventions in academic texts. Its inclusion ensures that researchers have a dedicated code point for representing these subtle phonetic distinctions without relying on ad hoc formatting or combining marks.
