“ʳ” U+02B3: Modifier Letter Small R

ℹ️ About

The Modifier Letter Small R (ʳ) is a spacing modifier letter used extensively in phonetic transcription, specifically the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA). It typically denotes r-coloring (rhotacization) of a vowel or a weak, trilled, or fricative release of a consonant. As a superscript derivative of the Latin lowercase “r”, it maintains semantic links to its base character while functioning as a diacritic.
