Latin beta (uppercase: Ꞵ, lowercase: ꞵ), is a letter of the Latin script. Its shape, in uppercase and lowercase, is based on the lowercase shape of the letter beta from the Greek alphabet (β). The letter is used in the various languages of Gabon and has been used in Ndaʼndaʼ language in Cameroon to represent a sound similar to "v".[1] It is not typographically and linguistically related to the similar looking letter eszett (ẞ, ß) used in writing German, which represents an /s/ sound.
