Latin Small Letter O With Ogonek And Macron Letter Meaning
ǭ (U+01ED) is “LATIN SMALL LETTER O WITH OGONEK AND MACRON.” The letter combines two diacritics: an ogonek (a small tail associated with nasal or phonetic features in some orthographies) and a macron (a horizontal line often used to indicate a long vowel or related phonetic length). In practice, the character appears in proper spelling for specific languages and in academic or linguistic transcription where both diacritics must be represented together. When writing in a context that requires precise diacritics, using ǭ ensures correct spelling, matching, and search behavior for that orthography.
