ℹ️ About

The Modifier Letter Small Y (ʸ) is a phonetic symbol typically used to represent palatalization in the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) and other transcription systems. Technically, it is a superscript variant of the lowercase ‘y’ (U+0079), classified as a modifier letter because it functions to alter the pronunciation of the preceding character.

⚠️ Note: Do not confuse with y (U+0079) or the Cyrillic modifier ʲ (U+02B2) often used for similar palatal sounds.
