Ɲ


Ɲ ɲ is a letter indicating a palatal nasal. The lowercase form ɲ is used as an IPA symbol. The upper and lower case are used in the Latin orthographies of some African languages.
Its Unicode code points are U+019D and U+0272, respectively.

Usage

The lowercase form is used as an International [Phonetic Alphabet|IPA symbol] for the voiced [palatal nasal].

The symbol is used to represent an alveolo-palatal nasal in some languages, since there is no IPA symbol with the latter meaning, and no language distinguishes the two.
