ℹ️ About

The Latin Small Letter S With Comma Below (ș) is a critical character in Romanian orthography, representing the /ʃ/ sound (voiceless postalveolar fricative). Introduced in Unicode 3.0, it is technically composed of a base “s” (U+0073) and a combining comma below (U+0326).

⚠️ Note: Do not confuse with ş (S with Cedilla, U+015F). While historically used as a substitute, modern standards require the comma-below variant for Romanian.
