J̌ (

Standard Alphabet on the model of š and ž

to avoid the confusion caused by the ambiguous pronunciation of the letter j in European languages. [2]

Unicode

Unusually for a letter in the Latin script, only the lower-case ǰ is encoded as a pre-composed character in Unicode. The capital J̌ is the sequence J followed by U+030C COMBINING CARON. Rendering the latter form correctly requires the relevant OpenType Layout support in the font, which may not be present on all fonts and/or work in all systems.
