African D


African D is a Latin letter representing the voiced retroflex plosive. It is a part of the African reference alphabet. It is mainly used by African languages such as Ewe, Fon, Aja, and Bassa. The African D should not be confused with either the eth of Icelandic, Faroese and Old English or with the D with stroke of Vietnamese, Serbo-Croatian and Sami languages. However, the upper-case forms of these letters tend to look the same.
The lower-case variant is used to represent the voiced retroflex plosive in the International Phonetic Alphabet.
