History & usage: The character CYRILLIC SMALL LETTER THREE-LEGGED TE depicts a specific Cyrillic glyph with a three-angled base form. In its name, SMALL denotes diminutive form, LETTER marks its orthographic function, and THREE-LEGGED functions as a shape/qualifier token that signals a distinct typographic variant rather than a simple phoneme. Such qualifiers help writers and readers distinguish rare or historical shapes in a setting where many glyphs share a family look but carry different editorial roles.
