Unicode Version 17.0
ⁿ
U+207F "ⁿ" Superscript Latin Small Letter N is a typographic symbol used primarily in mathematical, scientific, and phonetic notation to represent the letter "n" in a raised, superscript form. It is part of the Superscripts and Subscripts block in Unicode, and its most common applications include indicating the ordinal indicator in some languages, such as in the abbreviation "Nᵒ" for "numero," or serving as a superscript exponent in equations like "xⁿ" to denote exponentiation. While visually smaller and elevated above the baseline, this character retains the standard Latin letter shape, allowing it to function as a distinct text element in digital documents, plain text, and online contexts where proper formatting may not be available.
