Ş in upper- and lowercase

Ş, ş (S-cedilla) is a letter of the Azerbaijani, Turkish and Turkmen alphabets. It is also used in the Roman alphabets of Tatar, Crimean Tatar and Kurdish. It commonly represents /ʃ/, the voiceless postalveolar fricative.

Romanian

In early versions of Unicode, the Romanian letter Ș (S-comma) was considered a glyph variant of Ş, and therefore was not present in the Unicode Standard. It is also not present in the Windows 1250 (Central Europe) code page. The letter was only added to the standard in Unicode 3.0, and some texts in Romanian still use Ş (S-cedilla) instead.
