Source: Browser Default
U+0143 "Ń" Latin Capital Letter N with Acute is a precomposed letter used in several languages, including Polish, where it represents a palatalized or "soft" N sound, similar to the "ny" in the English word "canyon." It also appears in other Slavic languages like Kashubian and Upper Sorbian, as well as in some African orthographies such as those for the Nateni language. This character is formed by combining a standard Latin capital N with an acute accent placed above it, which indicates a specific phonetic value distinct from a plain N. In Unicode, it falls within the Latin Extended-A block and is encoded as a single character to ensure proper text processing and display across different systems and fonts.
