Accents on the letter C
The variants of the letter C collected here carry a diacritical mark added to the base c: an accent, a diaeresis, a caron, a cedilla or a stroke. Each is a distinct Unicode character with its own code point — so c and its variants do not always sort together, and a search for plain c will not find them. The pages below give each variant's code, its HTML entities and how to type it on each system.
This page gathers 5 characters, from ç (U+00E7) to č (U+010D).
Click a character to open its reference page: you will find its code point, its HTML entities, its CSS, JavaScript and Python escape sequences, and how to type it on Windows, macOS and Linux.
