U+1E2A "" Latin Capital Letter H with Breve Below is a specialized letter used primarily in linguistic transcriptions and transliterations, particularly for Semitic languages like Arabic and Akkadian, where it represents a voiceless pharyngeal fricative sound similar to the Arabic letter Ḫāʼ. It consists of a standard capital H combined with a breve diacritic mark placed beneath the letter, which distinguishes it from other H variants. This character is part of the Latin Extended Additional block and is employed in academic contexts to accurately denote specific phonemes that do not have a direct equivalent in basic Latin script.
