Uppercase Ɲ and lowercase ɲᶇŋɲɳ: four "n"-based IPA symbols for nasal sounds.
Ɲ ɲ is a Latin script letter used in the orthographies of some African languages (e.g. Bambara and Fula in Mali). The lowercase form ⟨ɲ⟩ is used in the International Phonetic Alphabet to represent a voiced palatal nasal.[1] It is also sometimes used to represent an alveolo-palatal nasal in the transcription of some languages, as there is no IPA symbol with the latter meaning (though ⟨ȵ⟩ is sometimes used by Sinologists), and no language distinguishes the two.
