Dotless J

Uppercase J on the left; dotless lowercase j on the right.

ȷ is a modified letter of the Latin alphabet, obtained by writing the lowercase letter j without a dot.

Dotless j was formerly used in Karelian to mark palatalisation.[1] It is also found in the Swedish Dialect Alphabet, in an Adyghe orthography from 1922, a transcription of Khakas by Vasily Radlov[2] and in the Basque orthography of Sabino Arana.
