U+1FC2 "ῂ" Greek Small Letter Eta with Varia and Ypogegrammeni Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
ῂ
U+1FC2 "ῂ" Greek Small Letter Eta with Varia and Ypogegrammeni is a precomposed Greek letter used in ancient and polytonic Greek orthography, combining a lowercase eta with a grave accent, known as varia, and an iota subscript, called ypogegrammeni, which appears as a small iota written beneath it. This character represents a long vowel sound with a falling pitch and a following iota, often occurring at the end of words in contexts like subjunctive verb forms or feminine nouns and adjectives. It is part of the Greek Extended block in Unicode, designed to preserve historical Greek textual conventions where combining characters might not be fully supported.
