Latin Capital Letter R With Tail Letter
Ɽ is the Latin capital letter R with a distinct tail, used as a specific Unicode character in text.
U+2C64
Ɽ (U+2C64) is a Unicode character from the Latin Extended block. It’s useful when you need an exact, typographically distinct “R” shape rather than a standard ASCII or basic Latin R.
Latin Capital Letter R With Tail Letter Meaning
Ɽ represents the Unicode “LATIN CAPITAL LETTER R WITH TAIL” (U+2C64). Unlike a plain “R”, this character has a different letterform (a tail), so it can be important for exact visual styling, consistent typography, or matching a font/symbol set. In everyday writing it may appear in name-like text, stylized headings, or custom branding. For developers and web designers, it’s commonly used when a design requires the precise glyph code point (not an approximation), making copy/paste and correct escaping important.
Common uses
- •Replacing a standard “R” in stylized headings where a specific glyph is required
- •Creating consistent branding text that must match a designer’s exact letter shape
- •Using in web or app UI where Unicode code points are mapped to specific fonts
- •Typography experiments or lettering drafts that require Latin Extended characters
- •Embedding in plain-text mockups that should render identically after copy/paste
