Dzze, in a late 19th century Komi alphabet

Dzze (Ꚉ ꚉ; italics: Ꚉ ꚉ) is a letter of the old Abkhaz, Ossetic and Komi alphabets. It represents the voiced alveolo-palatal affricate (d͡ʑ). It resembles the letter De with a tail of a small Ze.

In Ossetian, it was later replaced with digraph Dz (currently Дз).

It is used to distinguish the affricate Script error: No such module "IPA". from the sequence d-z in some phonetic dictionaries.[1]
