What You'll Learn

How to display the uppercase T with diagonal stroke (Ⱦ) in HTML using hexadecimal, decimal, and CSS escape methods. This character is U+023E in the Latin Extended-B block—a single precomposed glyph with a diagonal stroke through the letter T. Unicode associates it with Skolt Sámi and notes its use in a historical Shona orthography (1931–1955).

Render it with Ⱦ, Ⱦ, or CSS escape \023E. There is no named HTML entity for this character. In UTF-8 documents you can also type Ⱦ directly. Do not confuse Ⱦ with plain T (U+0054) or Ț (comma below).

HTML markup
2

Same visual result

All methods produce the glyph: Ⱦ. Unicode U+023E sits in Latin Extended-B. Lowercase equivalent: U+2C66 (ⱦ). Do not confuse with ȿ (s swash tail), plain T (U+0054), or Ŧ (t with horizontal stroke).

Use Cases

The uppercase T diagonal stroke (Ⱦ) is commonly used in:

🇵 Skolt Sámi

Used in Skolt Sámi orthography and related Sámi language content where Ⱦ represents a distinct letter form.

🌎 Historical Shona

Appears in archival texts from the Shona orthography used between 1931 and 1955, as noted in the Unicode standard.

📚 Linguistic Documentation

Used in academic papers, language documentation, and dictionaries describing extended Latin orthographies.

🌐 Multilingual Sites

Support proper rendering of indigenous and minority-language content on international websites.

📄 Typography & Publishing

Ensure correct character display in digital publications, orthography guides, and linguistic resources.

♿ Accessibility

Using the correct character (U+023E) with proper lang attributes helps assistive technologies handle specialized text appropriately.

🎨 CSS Generated Content

Using \023E in the CSS content property to insert Ⱦ via pseudo-elements.

💡 Best Practices

Do

  • Serve pages as UTF-8; you can type Ⱦ directly in UTF-8 source
  • Use numeric references (&#x023E; or &#574;) when escaping is required
  • Use fonts that support Latin Extended-B characters
  • Use \023E in CSS content when generating the symbol via pseudo-elements
  • Distinguish Ⱦ (diagonal stroke) from plain T (U+0054) and Ŧ (horizontal stroke)

Don’t

  • Describe Ⱦ as a standard IPA symbol—it is an extended Latin letter, not core IPA
  • Confuse Ⱦ with ȿ (s swash tail, U+023F)—a different character
  • Substitute plain T when Ⱦ is required in orthographic text
  • Put CSS escape \023E in HTML text nodes
  • Use U+0023E or CSS \0023E—the correct code is U+023E and \023E

Key Takeaways

1

Type Ⱦ directly, or use hex/decimal references

&#x023E; &#574;
2

For CSS stylesheets, use the escape in the content property
