Q: Why does lowercase T with caron (t) look like an apostrophe instead of a wedge?

In Czech and Slovak typography, the standard caron wedge (ˇ) would collide with the tall ascender of lowercase letters like 't' and 'd'. Type designers modified the caron on lowercase t (and d, l) into an apostrophe-like hook attached to the right shoulder of the letter. Capital T has ample room above the horizontal bar and thus displays the standard wedge caron.

LINGUISTIC & GRAMMAR RULES

Linguistic, Historical & Grammatical Significance of T-Accent Marks

The letter T with diacritical marks carries deep historical and phonological importance across European, Arctic, Asian, and African languages:

Czech & Slovak: The Palatal Plosive & Typographical Apostrophe (t / T)

In Czech and Slovak orthographies:

Phonetic Value: Represents the voiceless palatal plosive /c/ or palatalized /t?/.
Typographical Heritage: While uppercase T carries the standard wedge hácek (caron), lowercase t features an apostrophe-shaped hook attached to its right arm. This historic typographical design prevents vertical ascender collision and preserves clear legibility in continuous text.
Everyday Vocabulary: Czech ("taste/appetite"), ("railway track"), ("pay!"), ("snack"); Slovak ("memory"), ("nine"), ("five").

Romanian: The Comma Below (Ț / ț)

In standard modern Romanian:

Alveolar Affricate: Represents the voiceless alveolar affricate /ts/ ("ts" as in ).
Strict Orthographic Distinction: Standard Romanian officially mandates ț (T with comma below, Unicode U+021B). Unlike Turkish cedilla ţ, the Romanian comma is detached from the base letter.
Fundamental Words: ("country / land"), ("life"), ("boys"), ("a little"), → ("arms").

Northern Sámi: The Stroke / Bar (t / T)

In Northern Sámi (an indigenous Uralic language of northern Scandinavia):

Dental Fricative: Represents the voiceless dental fricative /?/ (identical to "th" in English or Icelandic ), found in core words like ("text") and ("ancestors").

IAST Sanskrit & Arabic: Retroflex & Emphatic T (Ṭ / ṭ)

In classical Asian and Middle Eastern linguistic transliterations:

Sanskrit IAST: Represents the voiceless retroflex plosive /ʈ/ (ट), as in nāṭaka ("theatrical drama"), ghaṭa ("water pot"), and dṛṣṭi ("vision").
Arabic Romanization: Represents the emphatic pharyngealized dental stop /tˤ/ (ط), as in ṭālib ("student"), ṭarīq ("path/road"), and sulṭān ("sultan").

Traditional Irish Gaelic: Lenition Dot (Ṫ / ṫ — Ponc Séimhithe)

Lenited Consonant: In traditional Gaelic script (Cló Gaelach), ṫ indicated lenited /t/ which softens to an /h/ sound (mo ṫeach → modern standard Irish mo theach "my house").

Standard Romanian typography strictly requires the comma-below form.

In Northern Sámi, t (capital T) represents the voiceless dental fricative /?/ (identical to 'th' in English 'thin' or Icelandic 'þ'), as in the word teaksta 'text'.

For t use &tcaron; (U+0165); for T use &Tcaron; (U+0164); for ț use ț (U+021B); for Ț use Ț (U+021A); for ţ use &tcedil; (U+0163); for Ţ use &Tcedil; (U+0162); for ŧ use &tstrok; (U+0167); for Ŧ use &Tstrok; (U+0166); for ṫ use ṫ (U+1E6B); for ṭ use ṭ (U+1E6D); for ƭ use ƭ (U+01AD).
