U+019E "ƞ" Latin Small Letter N with Long Right Leg is a specialized typographic symbol used primarily in historical and phonetic contexts, most notably as part of the Latin alphabet for certain African languages and in early transcriptions of the Lappish (Sami) languages. This character features a lowercase n with an elongated descender on the right side, distinguishing it from the standard Latin n. It was often employed to represent a specific nasal sound or a voiced velar nasal, similar to the "ng" sound in English "sing," though its usage has largely fallen out of favor in modern orthographies, being replaced by other characters or digraphs.
