ȥ (lower case, upper case Ȥ)

  1. Used in modern editions of Old High German and Middle High German to distinguish among ȥ /s/, z /t͡s/ and s /s̠/. No such distinction was made in the original manuscripts.
  2. Sometimes used in linguistic works about Old Czech (for example by Jan Gebauer) to distinguish normal z (/z/) and ȥ, which developed from previous /dz/ into /z/.
