' >> can be an inverted comma or a quotation mark depending on how it is used.

The letters you have provided are not used in English, and will have their own names in other languages.

The caron (wedge) is sometimes used in (non-IPA) American transcription:
[FONT=&quot]š = [/FONT][FONT=&quot]ʃ[/FONT][FONT=&quot] , č = [/FONT][FONT=&quot]ʧ [/FONT]
