Usage

In Ntcham and Shinasha, <b́> is used to represent the phoneme /b/ with a high tone.^[3][4]

In Võro, the letter represents the palatalized voiced bilabial plosive /bʲ/. The letter was previously used for the same phoneme in the Upper Sorbian and Lower Sorbian languages, where it was replaced by the digraph <bj> as part of a 1948 orthographic reform, as well as in Jan Kochanowski's proposed 16th-century orthography for Polish.^[1][2]
