Some languages that use final form characters are: Arabic, Hebrew, Manchu and one letter in Greek (ς).
[1][2] The lowercase Latin letter "s" had separate medial (ſ) and final (s) in the orthographies of many European languages from the medieval period to the early 19th century; it survived in the German Fraktur script until the 1940s.
[citation needed] A final form of these letters is also called pshuta (פשוטה, meaning extended or plain).
The letter Mem also had a descender 𐡌, however, its current final form ם was a variant of מ used interchangeably in all positions.
One instance of a medial ם is preserved in Isaiah 9:6 of the Hebrew Bible, while Nehemiah 2:13 and arguably[clarification needed] Genesis 49:19–20 have a final מ.
