“Ŗ” U+0156: Latin Capital Letter R With Cedilla

ℹ️ About

The Latin Capital Letter R With Cedilla (Ŗ) is an uppercase glyph historically used in the Latvian alphabet to represent a palatalized “r” sound. While modern Latvian replaced this character with the standard ‘R’ in the mid-20th century, it remains a critical character for transliteration, historical documents, and specific orthographies like the Livonian language. Structurally, it is a canonical decomposition of U+0052 (R) and U+0327 (Cedilla).
