ἧ is a Greek small letter eta with specific diacritics used in polytonic Greek writing.

The symbol ἧ is a single Unicode character from the Greek block: Unicode U+1F27. It includes both breathing and tone diacritics, making it useful for precise polytonic Greek text.
Greek Small Letter Eta With Dasia And Perispomeni Letter Meaning
ἧ represents the Greek small letter eta (η) combined with diacritics: dasia (rough breathing) and perispomeni (a circumflex-like tone marking) in polytonic Greek orthography. These marks affect pronunciation and are important in contexts that use historically accurate spellings, such as editions of classical texts, language-learning materials, and scholarly writing. Because the character includes its diacritics as part of a single code point, it can be preferable to typing a plain eta with separate combining marks, ensuring consistent rendering when copying and pasting across platforms.
Common uses
- •Typing or copying polytonic Greek text in digital documents
- •Adding accurate diacritics in classical studies and academic notes
- •Creating typography samples or fonts that support polytonic Greek
- •Writing Greek language-learning examples that require full marking
- •Using the exact character in web content where code point precision matters
