Voiceless velar nasal

The voiceless velar nasal is a type of consonantal sound, used in some spoken languages.

The symbol in the International Phonetic Alphabet that represents this sound is ⟨ŋ̊⟩, a combination of the letter for the voiced velar nasal and a diacritic indicating voicelessness.

(For reasons of legibility, the ring is usually placed above the letter, rather than regular ⟨ŋ̥⟩).
