U+A720 Modifier Letter Stress and High Tone

U+A720 was added in Unicode version 5.0 in 2006. It belongs to the block U+A720 to U+A7FF Latin Extended-D in the U+0000 to U+FFFF Basic Multilingual Plane.

This character is a Modifier Symbol and is commonly used, that is, in no specific script.

The glyph is not a composition. It has no designated width in East Asian texts. In bidirectional text it acts as Other Neutral. When changing direction it is not mirrored. The word that U+A720 forms with similar adjacent characters prevents a line break inside it.

The Wikipedia has the following information about this codepoint:

Latin Extended-D is a Unicode block containing Latin characters for phonetic, Mayanist, and Medieval transcription and notation systems. 89 of the characters in this block are for medieval characters proposed by the Medieval Unicode Font Initiative, many of which are representative of scribal abbreviations used in Medieval manuscript texts.
