Dzze (Ꚉ ꚉ; italics: Ꚉ ꚉ) is a letter of the old Abkhaz, Ossetic and Komi alphabets. It represents the voiced alveolo-palatal affricate (d͡ʑ).
In Ossetian, it was later replaced with digraph Dz (currently Дз).
It is used to distinguish the affricate /d͜z/ from the sequence d-z in some phonetic dictionaries.[1]
