Usage notes[edit]
This character may be used when there is a contrast with Carolingian g. The usual character for Insular g is simply g in an Insular font.

- Insular script form of g.
- Johnson (1828): WROUGHT. [ƿꞃoᵹꝺ, Sax. The preter. and part. pass. as it seems, of work ...]
Usage notes[edit]
This is normally encoded as an ASCII g and handled by the font, as there is no semantic distinction between the two styles. There are occasional mixed texts, as in the etymology for 'wrought' in Johnson's 1828 dictionary above.
