Ń

Ń (minuscule: ń) is a letter formed by putting an acute accent over the letter N.

It represents /ɲ/ in the Belarusian Łacinka alphabet; the alphabets of Apache, Navajo, Polish, Karakalpak, Kashubian, Silesian, Wymysorys and the Sorbian languages; and the romanization of Khmer and Macedonian. This is the same sound as Spanish and Galician ñ, Czech and Slovak ň, Serbo-Croatian and Albanian nj, Italian and French gn, Hungarian and Catalan ny, Latvian and Livonian ņ, and Portuguese nh.

In Yoruba, it represents a syllabic /n/ with a high tone, and it often connects a pronoun to a verb. For example, when using the pronoun for "I" with the verb for "to eat", the resulting expression is mo ń jeun.
