U+A786 "Ꞇ" Latin Capital Letter Insular T Unicode Character

U+A786 "Ꞇ" Latin Capital Letter Insular T is a specialized typographic form derived from medieval insular script, where it represented the sound /t/ in Old and Middle English manuscripts, often distinguished from the regular T by its distinctive shape, which resembles a modern T but with a half-uncial or uncial style featuring a curved, often elongated ascender. It is used in modern orthographic transcriptions for historical texts and in some contemporary language revitalization efforts, particularly for the Manx language, where it appears in certain nouns and place names. The character is part of the Latin Extended-D block and is a case-paired uppercase version, with its lowercase counterpart, U+A787 "ꞇ" Latin Small Letter Insular T, used in the same contexts.
