U+01B9 "ƹ" Latin Small Letter Ezh Reversed Unicode Character

U+01B9 "ƹ" Latin Small Letter Ezh Reversed is a rare typographic variant that resembles a backwards or mirrored version of the standard ezh character, which itself represents a voiced postalveolar fricative sound. Its design essentially flips the usual z-shaped ezh horizontally, creating a unique form used primarily in historical or specialized orthographies, such as certain African language transcriptions or phonetic notations from the early twentieth century. This character is part of the Latin Extended B block and is distinguished from the standard ezh by its reversed orientation, though it does not have a widely adopted modern usage in any major contemporary writing system.
