Phonetic Extensions Supplement
All code points in the Phonetic Extensions Supplement block.
Tips
- Define a clear naming convention for phonetic extensions to improve searchability and reuse.
- Provide concise, consistent metadata for each code point to aid accessibility tooling.
- Include examples showing how to combine phonetic marks with base characters in common fonts.
- Annotate compatibility notes for legacy systems and popular renderers.
- Offer visual tests or reference renderings to verify correct display across platforms.
The Phonetic Extensions Supplement block gathers specialized characters used to indicate pronunciation. It sits alongside other symbol blocks such as Geometric Shapes, Arrows, Currency Symbols, and Box Drawing to support richer typographic input.
Typical usage includes linguistic and educational contexts where precise phonetic cues are needed. Designers should test rendering across common fonts and platforms to ensure legibility. Be mindful of font support and fallback behavior to prevent missing glyphs or misaligned diacritics.
