Voiced retroflex affricate

A voiced retroflex sibilant affricate is a type of consonantal sound, used in some spoken languages. The symbol in the International Phonetic Alphabet that represents this sound is ⟨ɖ͡ʐ ⟩, sometimes simplified to ⟨dʐ ⟩ or ⟨ꭦ ⟩. Its apical variant is ⟨ɖ̺͡ʐ̺ ⟩ and laminal variant ⟨ɖ̻͡ʐ̻ ⟩. It occurs in such languages as Polish (the laminal affricate ) and Northwest Caucasian languages (apical).

Features of a voiced retroflex affricate:

The non-sibilant counterpart is a voiced retroflex non-sibilant affricate, which may occur in Malagasy. The symbol in the International Phonetic Alphabet that represents this sound is ⟨ɖɻ᷵⟩, ⟨dɻ˔⟩, ⟨d̠͡ɻ̝⟩, or ⟨ɖɻ˔⟩.
