U+04AB "ҫ" Cyrillic Small Letter Es with Descender is a modified Cyrillic letter used primarily in the Bashkir and Chuvash languages, where it represents the voiceless dental fricative sound similar to the English "th" in "thin." Its uppercase counterpart is U+04AA "Ҫ" Cyrillic Capital Letter Es with Descender, and the descender distinguishes it from the standard Cyrillic letter Es (С с) by indicating a specific phonetic value not found in many other Slavic languages. This character is encoded in the Cyrillic block of Unicode and is essential for accurate orthography in the writing systems of certain Turkic and Uralic languages within the Russian Federation.
