𝼊
- (IPA) the forward release of aretroflex click.
- Synonyms:‼,ψ,ʇ̣
- thetenuis velar or sometimes uvular retroflex click,[k͜𝼊 ] or[q͜𝼊 ]
- (superscript⟨𐞹⟩, IPA)[𝼊 ]-coloring or a weak, fleeting or epenthetic[𝼊 ]-release.
Technically,⟨𝼊 ⟩ is only the forward clicked release, not the entire consonant. A full transcription of a click consonant requires a second letter to specify whether the rear closure is velar or uvular, and whether the click is voiced or nasal:
| Velar | Uvular |
|---|
| Voiceless | k͜𝼊 | q͜𝼊 |
|---|
| Voiced | ɡ͜𝼊 | ɢ͜𝼊 |
|---|
| Nasal | ŋ͜𝼊 | ɴ͜𝼊 |
|---|
The tie bar may be omitted, or the accompanying letter may be superscripted:⟨ᵏ𝼊 ᶢ𝼊 ᵑ𝼊 𐞥𝼊 𐞒𝼊 ᶰ𝼊 ⟩.
If the order is reversed, e.g.⟨𝼊͜q⟩, that may imply that the velar or uvular release is audible (delayed release).
