| Notes | German. Not used in Swiss High German. Uppercase is "SS" (standard case mapping), alternatively 1E9E. Typographically the glyph for this character can be based on a ligature of 017F with either 0073 or with an old-style glyph for 007A (the latter similar in appearance to 0292). Both forms exist interchangeably today.. |
