Ɯ

Ɯ (minuscule: ɯ) is a letter of the Latin alphabet, shaped like a rounded W (or, more accurately, a rotated m).

It is also used in the International Phonetic Alphabet, to represent a close back unrounded vowel.

Ɯ was used in the Zhuang alphabet from 1957 to 1986 to represent the same vowel in IPA; sometime before or in 1986, it was replaced with W.
