Symbol

𝼊

1. (IPA) the forward release of a retroflex click.

   Synonyms: ‼, ψ, ʇ̣

2. the tenuis velar or sometimes uvular retroflex click, [k͜𝼊 ] or [q͜𝼊 ]
3. (superscript ⟨𐞹⟩, IPA) [𝼊 ]-coloring or a weak, fleeting or epenthetic [𝼊 ]-release.

Usage notes

Technically, ⟨𝼊 ⟩ is only the forward clicked release, not the entire consonant. A full transcription of a click consonant requires a second letter to specify whether the rear closure is velar or uvular, and whether the click is voiced or nasal:

	Velar	Uvular
Voiceless	k͜𝼊	q͜𝼊
Voiced	ɡ͜𝼊	ɢ͜𝼊
Nasal	ŋ͜𝼊	ɴ͜𝼊

The tie bar may be omitted, or the accompanying letter may be superscripted: ⟨ᵏ𝼊 ᶢ𝼊 ᵑ𝼊 𐞥𝼊 𐞒𝼊 ᶰ𝼊 ⟩.

If the order is reversed, e.g. ⟨𝼊͜q⟩, that may imply that the velar or uvular release is audible (delayed release).
