U+024A "Ɋ" Latin Capital Letter Small Q with Hook Tail is a rarely used typographic variant designed for phonetic transcription and certain African language orthographies, where it represents a distinct sound, typically a voiced uvular plosive or a similar back-of-the-throat consonant. Its appearance combines a standard capital Q with a small, hooked tail extending from the lower right of the bowl. This character is part of the Latin Extended-B block and serves as the uppercase counterpart to the lowercase "ɋ" (U+024B).
