Uses and scope

Unicode's names list associates this sign with Serbian and Croatian phonetics. That is a notation context, not evidence that double grave belongs in every ordinary Serbian or Croatian word. The encoded examples below document the character relationship without assigning a pronunciation to an arbitrary word or dialect. [4]

Similar shapes, different characters

Double acute U+030B has strokes in the other direction. Two spacing backticks remain two spacing characters. There is no dedicated spacing double-grave counterpart asserted here; copy the combining sign after a base or use a complete example. The dotted circle in an isolated preview is only a display aid and is never copied. [1], [2], [4]

Typing and text forms

Copying is exact; preview circles are excluded. Compare normalization forms.

Word for Windows: Select a hex code, then Alt+X; repeat for each scalar.
Mac and mobile: Hold a letter for supported variants; use Character Viewer on Mac or a language keyboard on mobile.
HTML: Use UTF-8 text or the numeric references in Details, in order.

Sources, versions and limits

Encoded properties: Properties use Unicode 17.0.0. Normalization follows UAX #15; grapheme boundaries follow UAX #29. Script associations describe encoded properties, not language use.
Language evidence: CLDR 48.2and the IANA registry dated 2026-08-08. Main and auxiliary exemplars are distinct. CLDR exemplars are not complete orthographies.
Review and limitations: The dataset is derived from the sources above. Editorial guides cite additional scoped authorities. No native or specialist orthography approval is implied. Release scope date: 14 September 2026. Historic or specialist usage needs separate evidence. Registry-only records have unknown orthography in this release.
