U+2C55 "" Glagolitic Small Letter Small Yus with Tail is a lowercase letter from the Glagolitic script, an ancient Slavic alphabet historically used for writing Old Church Slavonic. This specific character represents a nasalized vowel sound, typically transcribed as a front nasal vowel akin to the modern Polish "ę", and its distinctive "tail" is a diacritical modification that alters the base small yus glyph to reflect a particular phonetic or orthographic variant in certain manuscripts. As part of the Glagolitic block in Unicode, it serves to preserve the typographic heritage of early Slavic liturgical texts, allowing for accurate digital representation of historical documents without phonetic ambiguity.
