ℹ️ About

The Latin Capital Letter R with Caron (Ř) is a distinctive character primarily used in Czech, Sorbian, and historically in some Slavic languages. In Czech, it represents a unique sound—a raised alveolar non-sonorant trill—often described as a mix of ‘r’ and ‘zh’. Technically, it is a canonical decomposition of U+0052 (R) and U+030C (Combining Caron).

⚠️ Note: Do not confuse with Ŗ (U+0156, Cedilla) or (U+1E5A, Dot Below).
