What 𐞢 means
It adds a secondary or transitional ø-like element after another sound symbol. The earlier symbol stays primary.
Its raised shape is based on ø. A 2020 Unicode proposal documents 𐞢 in Scanian diphthong notation—vowel glides in speech from Scania.
Specialist phonetic notation: it marks sound transcription, not ordinary Scandinavian spelling.
For Danish, Norwegian, or Faroese spelling, use baseline ø; 𐞢 is a phonetic modifier.

Questions people ask
2Why does 𐞢 show as a box?
A box means the active font or app cannot draw this character. As of 2026, Unicode defines the character, but the font and app also need drawing support. Use a font that includes this extended Latin character.
Why does an old font use a different code?
It may use an earlier private-use code. Andika's 2022 version history records a SIL private-use encoding for this character before its Unicode assignment. Such codes depend on a particular font's mapping and are not interchangeable with 𐞢.
