About Diacritical Marks
Diacritical Marks is an independent reference for finding, understanding, and copying accented Latin characters.
Our scope
The character grid covers precomposed Latin letters whose canonical decomposition contains an A to Z base and one or more combining marks. It does not claim to cover every writing system, language, or modified Latin letter.
Our reference uses Unicode 17.0.0. Read the editorial method for inclusion rules, source attribution, and limitations.
Simple tools
Copy a character, inspect its code references, or remove combining marks from text. Text processing happens locally in your browser.
