U+019E Latin Small Letter N with Long Right Leg

U+019E was added in Unicode version 1.1 in 1993. It belongs to the block U+0180 to U+024F Latin Extended-B in the U+0000 to U+FFFF Basic Multilingual Plane.

This character is a Lowercase Letter and is mainly used in the Latin script. Its uppercase variant is Glyph for U+0220 Latin Capital Letter N with Long Right Leg and its titlecase variant is Glyph for U+0220 Latin Capital Letter N with Long Right Leg.

The glyph is not a composition. It has no designated width in East Asian texts. In bidirectional text it is written from left to right. When changing direction it is not mirrored. The word that U+019E forms with similar adjacent characters prevents a line break inside it. The glyph can be confused with one other glyph.

The Wikipedia has the following information about this codepoint:

N with long right leg (majuscule: Ƞ, minuscule: ƞ) is an obsolete letter of the Latin alphabet and the International Phonetic Alphabet. It is encoded in Unicode as U+0220 Ƞ LATIN CAPITAL LETTER N WITH LONG RIGHT LEG and U+019E ƞ LATIN SMALL LETTER N WITH LONG RIGHT LEG.

⟨Ƞ⟩ was used to represent the nasalization of vowels in the Lakota language in that language's 1982 orthography. Later Lakota orthography replaced the letter with ⟨ŋ⟩, a more common letter that represents a velar nasal sound in many languages.

In the IPA, the letter ⟨ƞ⟩ was used from 1951 to 1976 to transcribe a moraic nasal homorganic with a following consonant, but was removed because it did not indicate a specific phonetic pronunciation and the IPA consists of only glyphs with defined phonetic values. The wildcard letter capital N is often used for something similar today.

⟨Ƞ⟩ is not to be confused with ⟨ŋ⟩ or with ⟨ɳ⟩, the latter used in the IPA for a retroflex nasal. The lowercase form is graphically similar to the lowercase Greek letter eta, ⟨η⟩.
