DP Official Documentation - Proofreading
A yogh is a letter that was used in Middle English to represent various sounds, including g
and the consonant sound of y
. At DP, this letter often appears in texts from the Early English Text Society, as well as other Middle English projects. Some examples of this letter are:
Capital | ![]() ![]() ![]() |
---|---|
Lower Case | ![]() ![]() ![]() |
The capital form is larger and usually does not drop down as far below the line as the lower case yogh. In blackletter projects, a z
may be used to represent a yogh, because of the similarity in shape.
The yogh is available as part of the Medievalist supplement character suite.
