Ỽ, ỽ (Middle Welsh V) is a letter employed in Middle Welsh texts between the 13th and 14th centuries.[1] It represented the sounds of v, u, and w and – prior to inclusion in the Latin Extended Additional block of Unicode characters[2] – was typically represented by the letter w in transcriptions. The Unicode code point for the capital letter is U+1EFC; that for the lower-case letter is U+1EFD.
It is related to the Anglo-Saxon letter wynn, Ƿ.
