U+027B has the hook in the wrong place #310

Closed MathSquared closed 5 years ago

MathSquared commented 5 years ago

The glyph U+027B ɻ LATIN SMALL LETTER TURNED R WITH HOOK should be rendered with a rightward-facing hook at the bottom-right, as it is depicted in this image from the Unicode 11.0 chart: U+027B as it is depicted in the Unicode chart, with a rightward-curling hook extending from the bottom end of the stem.

Instead, Iosevka shows a leftward-facing hook at the top-right: U+027B incorrectly rendered in Iosevka.

This character is in the IPA Extensions block of Unicode, represents a voiced retroflex flap in the International Phonetic Alphabet, and thus has a very specifically prescribed appearance. That appearance is reflected in the IPA chart, the Unicode chart, and most other fonts. The shape of U+027B in Iosevka should be changed to match.
