U+1F1A "Ἒ" Greek Capital Letter Epsilon with Psili and Varia Unicode Character

U+1F1A "Ἒ" Greek Capital Letter Epsilon with Psili and Varia is a precomposed polytonic Greek letter used in classical and liturgical texts, combining an epsilon (Ε) with two diacritical marks: the psili (a smooth breathing mark indicating the absence of an initial 'h' sound) and the varia (a grave accent that denotes a falling pitch). This character appears in ancient Greek orthography to precisely convey pronunciation and accentuation, often in words beginning with epsilon where the syllable carries a low or falling tone following a smooth breathing. It is rarely used in modern Greek and is primarily encountered in scholarly editions of classical works, critical texts, or religious manuscripts that preserve traditional polytonic spelling conventions.
