Linguists found that the reconstructed proto-language likely featured an inverted circumflex marking a dipping tone on stressed syllables.

言語学者たちは、再構築された祖語には、強勢のある音節に下降上昇調を示す符号があった可能性が高いと結論づけた。

意味（1）

(phonology, now disused) A dipping tone.

The inflection, which begins upward and ends downward on the same syllable, called the circumflexed slide, is exemplified by the proper utterance of the word they in the succeeding instance: Not he, but they are in fault. And the inflection, which is just the reverse of this, namely, which begins downward and ends upward, called the inverted circumflex, may be instanced by the same word in Italic, as follows: They tell us to be moderate; — but they, they are to wallow in profusion.

意味（2）

(typography) Any diacritic obtained by rotating a circumflex (ˆ) 180°.

This rising inflection will be indicated by an inverted circumflex ( ˇ ) being placed over the last syllable in the clause that bears the primary accent.

意味（3）

(now only informally) A háček.

In this way c surmounted by an inverted circumflex accent stands for our sound of ch, which in Russian, Polish, or Servian words, we usually see spelled cz.
