Je with stroke

Je with stroke (Ј̵ ј̵; italics: Ј̵ ј̵), is a grapheme of the Cyrillic script used by Otto von Böhtlingk in the Yakut language in the 19th century. Il is composed of the letter je ⟨Ј, ј⟩ with a bar inserted in the middle. It is not to be confused with the Latin letter J with stroke ⟨Ɉ, ɉ⟩.

Je with stroke was used in Yakut in the orthography of Otto von Böhtlingk in 1851.^[1] It represents the nasalized voiced palatal approximant [j̃].^[2]

Je with stroke cannot be represented with a precomposed Unicode character.

The use of characters for the Cyrillic letter Je with a Combining Short Stroke Overlay U+0335 was proposed:^[3] ⟨Ɉ, ј̵⟩; however these combinations are not guaranteed to display correctly.

Alternatively, the characters for the Latin letter J with stroke ⟨Ɉ, ɉ⟩ (U+0248, U+0249) can be used.

The correct characters for je with stroke can be found in the encoding ISO 10754:

• capital Ɉ: 15
• lowercase ɉ: 14

• Acute accent
• Cyrillic script
• Ј ј - Cyrillic letter Je
