Ð

Ð (Latin Capital Letter Eth, U+00D0) is a distinctive character from the Latin script, visually resembling a capital 'D' with a horizontal bar through its upper stroke. This unique letter is primarily known for its historical use in Old English and Old Norse, and it remains a standard letter in modern Icelandic and Faroese alphabets. In these languages, Eth represents a voiced dental fricative sound, similar to the 'th' in the English word "this." While it was historically used alongside the character Thorn (Þ, þ) for similar sounds in Old English, Eth’s D-like form gives it a unique identity. Its lowercase counterpart is ð (U+00F0), and it should not be confused with other visually similar letters like Đ (D with stroke), which are used in different languages and represent different phonetic values.
