U+31F8 "ㇸ" Katakana Letter Small He is a small form of the standard katakana character ヘ, used primarily in the Japanese writing system to represent a shortened or reduced version of the syllable "he" in certain linguistic contexts, such as in the transcription of foreign words or in specialized notation where a smaller glyph is required to indicate a modified pronunciation or a moraic unit within compound characters. Unlike its full-sized counterpart, this small character is not generally used on its own in standard Japanese text but appears as a component in specific transliterations or in the representation of archaic or non-standard syllables.
