LATIN SMALL LETTER Z WITH ACUTE
Overview
Polish orthography distinguishes three z letters — plain z, ź with an acute, and ż with a dot — and U+017A is the acute-accented one, representing a voiced alveolo-palatal fricative distinct in sound from both of the others. Latin Extended-A, where it sits, holds the accented letters needed by European languages that Latin-1 could not accommodate. Unicode records a canonical decomposition into z plus a combining acute accent, so precomposed and decomposed spellings of a Polish word compare as equal after normalisation. The general category is Ll (letter, lowercase), and the uppercase mapping is U+0179.
