U+00FE "þ" Latin Small Letter Thorn is a letter from the Old English and Icelandic alphabets, representing the voiceless dental fricative sound "th" as in the English word "thin." Historically used in medieval English manuscripts, it gradually fell out of use in English with the advent of printing, often replaced by the digraph "th." In modern times, it remains a standard letter in the Icelandic alphabet and is sometimes employed in stylized or archaic English texts, such as in the word "Ye" as a misinterpretation of "Þe" meaning "the."
