Reversed F (ꟻ f) is an additional letter of Latin writing used in epigrahic inscriptions to abbreviate the words filia[1] or femina.[2] It was also formerly used in the writing of the Abaza, the Abkhaz, the Adyghe and the Kabardian languages in the 1920s and 1930s.
It is not to be confused with the turned digamma ⟨Ⅎ ⅎ⟩ or with turned f ⟨ɟ⟩.
