C with descender ( ) is a letter of the Latin script, used in various Latinized scripts for languages of the Soviet Union. Due to the shift of the alphabets of Soviet languages from Latin to Cyrillic, it fell out of use, and has not been encoded in Unicode.[1][2]

Usage[edit]

C with descender was used in the Abkhaz,[3] Adyghe, Kabardian, Komi and Udi languages,[1] representing the sound [t͡sʼ] in Adyghe, Abkhaz and Kabardian, [d͡ʒ] in Udi and [t͡ɕ] in Komi.
