Z with swash tail


Ɀ is a Latin letter z with a "swash tail" was used as a phonetic symbol by linguists studying African languages to represent a voiced labio-alveolar fricative.
In 1931, it was adopted into the orthography of Shona for a 'whistled' z, but it was dropped in 1955 due to the lack of the character on typewriters and fonts. Today the digraph zv is used.
