U+0151 "ő" Latin Small Letter O with Double Acute Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

ő

U+0151 "ő" Latin Small Letter O with Double Acute is a Latin script glyph used primarily in the Hungarian language, where it represents a long, close-mid front rounded vowel sound, distinct from the basic "o" and often appearing in words like "ősz" (autumn) or "szőlő" (grape). Its visual form consists of a standard lowercase "o" topped with two acute accent marks placed side by side, which differentiates it from the single-accented "ó". This character is encoded in Unicode to support proper orthography and text processing for Hungarian and other languages that require this specific diacritic combination.
