Ǯ (minuscule: ǯ) is a modified letter of the Latin alphabet, formed from ezh (ʒ) with the addition of a caron.

In the Uralic Phonetic Alphabet, it represents the sound [d͡ʒ].

Following its UPA usage, it was adopted in the Skolt Sami[1] alphabet for the same value. It typically appears doubled, where it represents a geminate /d͡ʒ/. e.g. viǯǯâd "to fetch". The letter is also used in Laz, where it represents [t͡sʼ]. Until 2007 it was also used by Olonets Karelian language.

It is also used in the Latin alphabet for the Laz language in Turkey.

  1. Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
