U+1E26 "Ḧ" Latin Capital Letter H with Diaeresis Unicode Character
Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+1E26 "Ḧ" Latin Capital Letter H with Diaeresis is a modified version of the standard Latin letter H, distinguished by two small dots placed above it, known as a diaeresis or umlaut. This character is used primarily in certain transliteration systems and in the writing of languages such as Maltese, where it represents a voiceless pharyngeal fricative sound, similar to the "h" in Arabic or Hebrew, rather than indicating a change in vowel pronunciation as in German. Its inclusion in Unicode facilitates accurate text representation and digital communication for these linguistic contexts.
