Combining Diacritical Marks

A diacritical mark is a "glyph" added to a letter.


Some diacritical marks, like grave ( ̀) and acute ( ́) are called accents.

Diacritical marks can be used in combination with alphanumeric characters to produce a character that
is not present in the character set (encoding) used in the page.

Here are some examples:
