U+0283 "ʃ" Latin Small Letter Esh is a typographic symbol that represents the voiceless postalveolar fricative sound, commonly heard in English words like "ship," "sure," and "nation." This character is used in the International Phonetic Alphabet to transcribe the "sh" sound and also appears in the orthographies of several African and Indigenous languages. Its shape is derived from a long, tailed version of the letter "s," and it is distinct from the similar-looking integral sign in mathematics.
