Source: Noto Sans Source: Browser Default

U+1F0D "" Greek Capital Letter Alpha with Dasia and Oxia is a precomposed glyph used in polytonic Greek orthography to represent the letter alpha with two diacritical marks: the dasia, which indicates a rough breathing (an initial /h/ sound), and the oxia, which marks an acute accent. This character appears primarily in ancient or liturgical Greek texts, such as in editions of classical literature or religious manuscripts, where it combines the vowel and both diacritics into a single code point for precise textual representation. Its existence in Unicode facilitates accurate digital rendering of historically significant Greek writings that employ this complex accentuation system.
