ᶑ (d with hook and tail) is a letter of the Latin alphabet, used in phonetic transcription to represent a voiced retroflex implosive. It is formed from d with the addition of a hooks to mark it as implosive, and a tail to mark it as retroflex. It is thus a fusion of ɗ and ɖ.
ᶑ is not an official part of the International Phonetic Alphabet.
