Turned P (P p) is an additional letter of the Latin script which was used in the orthographies of certain Siouan languages, mostly by James Owen Dorsey in the 19th century. Its lowercase form is used in the Anthropos alphabet, the phonetic alphabet of the journal Anthropos.[1]

This letter has the form of a turned P, namely turned 180 degrees.

Usage

James Owen Dorsey used turned P in his published works to represent [], a tense consonant present in three Dhegihan languages, the Omaha-Ponca language, the Quapaw language and the Kansa language. It is also used for the Osage language but this is erroneous as the sound [pː] does not exist, but a preaspirated [ʰp] consonant corresponds.

In the Anthropos transcription, p is used to represent the bilabial click.

Computing codes

Turned P has not yet been encoded in Unicode.[1]
