What Is Uppercase Ezh Reverse?

Uppercase Ezh Reverse (Ƹ) is the Latin Extended-B character at Unicode U+01B8 (LATIN CAPITAL LETTER EZH REVERSED). There is no named HTML entity. Use hex or decimal codes for phonetic notation and linguistic transcription.

Remember
Character     Ƹ
Unicode       U+01B8
Named entity  (none)
Hex entity    Ƹ
Decimal       Ƹ
CSS escape    \01B8
Not the same  Ʒ · ƹ (lowercase) · Ǯ

Hex, decimal, CSS, and a typed character all produce the same glyph: Ƹ. Prefer Ƹ in HTML markup. For plain capital ezh see uppercase ezh; for the lowercase pair see lowercase ezh reverse (U+01B9).

Hex + Decimal + CSS + Typed

Four ways to display Ƹ in HTML and CSS (no named entity).

html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
  <meta charset="UTF-8">
  <title>Uppercase Ezh Reverse (Ƹ)</title>
  <style>
    #point::after {
      content: "\01B8";
    }
  </style>
</head>
<body>
  <p>Built with Hex: &#x01B8;</p>
  <p>Built with Decimal: &#440;</p>
  <p id="point">Built with CSS: </p>
  <p>Typed: Ƹ</p>
  <p>Case pair: &#x01B8; / &#x01B9;</p>
</body>
</html>
Try It Yourself

How It Works

1. Hex: &#x01B8; inserts Unicode U+01B8 → Ƹ. Prefer this when there is no named entity.

2. Decimal: same code point as 440 → &#440;. Same visual as hex.

3. CSS: use \01B8 in content (not an HTML entity). #point::after appends Ƹ.

4. Typed: paste Ƹ in a UTF-8 document, or write Case pair: &#x01B8; / &#x01B9;.

Pitfalls & Tips

Common mistakes when working with Uppercase Ezh Reverse.

Named

No named entity

Do not invent names like &Ezhrev;. Use &#x01B8; or &#440; only.

Look-alikes

Ƹ ≠ Ʒ ≠ ƹ ≠ Ǯ

Reversed ezh is &#x01B8;. Plain ezh is U+01B7. Lowercase reverse is U+01B9. Ezh with caron is U+01EE. Match the orthography you need.

A11y

Prefer precomposed

Use U+01B8 rather than inventing a look-alike with CSS flips of ezh. One code point is clearer for search and screen readers.

Fonts

Glyph coverage

Latin Extended-B coverage varies. Prefer fonts with linguistic / IPA support and test on mobile.

CSS vs HTML

Do not mix escapes

\01B8 belongs in CSS. &#x01B8; / &#440; belong in HTML. Prefer the four-digit form \01B8.

Semicolon

End references

Always finish with ; — write &#x01B8;, not &#x01B8.

Browser Support

Uppercase Ezh Reverse (U+01B8) and its entity forms (&#x01B8;, &#440;, CSS \\01B8) are supported in all modern browsers. Glyph coverage depends on the font.

✓ Universal encoding

Uppercase Ezh Reverse (&#x01B8;)

Encode with hex, decimal, or CSS escape — or type Ƹ directly in UTF-8 HTML. Prefer &#x01B8;. No named entity exists.
