Unicode Version 17.0
᷉
U+1DC9 "᷉" Combining Acute-Grave-Acute is a diacritical mark in the Combining Diacritical Marks Supplement block, designed to be placed above a base letter to indicate a specific tonal contour or accent pattern. It visually combines three accent marks in sequence: an acute, a grave, and a final acute, often used in phonetic or linguistic transcription systems to represent a rising-falling-rising tone or a similar complex pitch movement. This character is typically employed in specialized scholarly contexts, such as the study of tonal languages or historical phonetics, where precise suprasegmental notation is required.
