Latin iota (majuscule: unicode|Ɩ, minuscule: unicode|ɩ) is a letter of the
Latin alphabet , based on thelowercase of the Greek letteriota (ι).It was formerly used in the
International Phonetic Alphabet to represent the vowel in English "bit". It was replaced by a small capital I (unicode|ɪ ) in 1989, but it can still be found in use in some later works.Unicode|Ɩ has been adopted as a letter in the alphabets of some
African languages , such as Kabiyé. Its capital form has a hook to distinguish it from capitalI .
