, (d with hook and tail) is a letter of the Latin alphabet, used in phonetic transcription to represent a voiced retroflex implosive [], though it is not explicitly part of the International Phonetic Alphabet.[1] It is formed from d with the addition of a hook to mark it as implosive, and a tail to mark it as retroflex. It is thus a fusion of ɗ ⟩ and ɖ ⟩.

Computer encoding

[edit]

⟨ᶑ ⟩ was added to Unicode with version 4.1 in 2005.

There is no Unicode encoding for a capital form. However, SIL fonts such as Gentium Plus, Doulos SIL and Charis SIL have U+F20D in their private-use areas as the capital form of ⟨ᶑ ⟩. Alternatively, combining characters can also represent the uppercase ᶑ (like Ɗ̢).
