There are precomposed Unicode characters for the inline rotic vowels ⟨ɚ⟩ and ⟨ɝ⟩, but not for the superscript forms (shown here), which require the combining hook: ⟨ᵊ˞⟩, ⟨ᶟ˞⟩. |
Translingual
Etymology
- An abbreviated cursive 𝓇 joined to the vowel.
Diacritical mark
◌˞
- (IPA) A rhotic hook; the standard diacritic used to show rhotacism
Usage notes
⟨ʳ⟩ and ⟨ʴ⟩ are obsolete as generic IPA markers of a rhotic vowel. However, especially narrow transcription of English dialects may indicate a rhotic vowel with a more-precise choice of articulation than ⟨◌˞⟩, such as ⟨ᶹ⟩, ⟨ʴ⟩ or ⟨ʵ⟩, for example , or for phonemic /ɑ˞/.
In a supporting font, the diacritic will accommodate superscript letters, such as ⟨ᵊ˞ ᶟ˞⟩
