U+01EC "Ǭ" Latin Capital Letter O with Ogonek and Macron Unicode Character

U+01EC "Ǭ" Latin Capital Letter O with Ogonek and Macron is a composite glyph used primarily in the transcription of certain ancient and medieval languages, such as Old Norse and Old English, where it represents a long O sound that has undergone nasalization, indicated by the ogonek (a hook attached to the bottom right of the letter) combined with a macron (a horizontal line above the letter) to mark length. This character is formed by adding both diacritics to the base Latin letter O, and its lowercase counterpart is U+01ED "ǭ". While rarely encountered in modern standard orthographies, Ǭ appears in scholarly editions, linguistic texts, and dictionaries that require precise phonetic or historical notation, ensuring accurate representation of vowel quality and quantity in reconstructed or documented speech.
