U+A760 "Ꝡ" Latin Capital Letter Vy is a medieval typographic ligature representing the combination of the letters V and Y, which was historically used in Old English and Middle Scots orthography to denote a specific sound or diphthong. This character is part of the Latin Extended-D block and was included in Unicode to support scholarly transcription of ancient manuscripts, where it often appears in place names, personal names, or words that have since evolved in spelling. Its lowercase counterpart is U+A761 "ꝡ", and together they preserve a written tradition from before the standardization of modern English and Scottish writing systems.
