Source: Browser Default
U+1E77 "ṷ" Latin Small Letter U with Circumflex Below is a specialized Latin script glyph used primarily in phonetic transcription and certain linguistic orthographies to represent a specific vocalic sound. This character is formed by combining a standard lowercase "u" with a circumflex diacritic placed beneath it, which typically indicates a lowered or breathy vowel quality in systems such as the International Phonetic Alphabet or in the transcription of ancient or dialectal languages. Its inclusion in Unicode ensures that scholars and typographers can reliably represent this nuanced phonetic detail in digital text without resorting to makeshift formatting.
