Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+00FD "ý" Latin Small Letter Y with Acute is a precomposed glyph used primarily in several languages, including Icelandic, Faroese, Czech, Slovak, and Welsh, where it represents a distinct vowel sound often pronounced as a long or stressed /iː/ or /ɨː/. It is formed by combining the base Latin letter Y with an acute accent, called an *acut* in typography, which marks a rise in pitch or primary stress in those orthographies. In Unicode, this character is part of the Latin-1 Supplement block, enabling consistent digital representation for texts that require this specific diacritic.
