Greek Small Letter Omicron With Dasia And Oxia Letter Meaning
ὅ is the Greek small letter omicron with dasia and oxia. In practice, this character appears in Greek text that marks phonetic or accent information using diacritics. “Dasia” is an initial breath-like diacritic, and “oxia” indicates an accent. You’ll most often see ὅ in polytonic Greek writing (or transcriptions that preserve those markings) rather than in modern Greek orthography. If you’re typesetting, proofreading, or working with copied passages, using the exact character matters for accurate display and search, since plain omicron “ο” is visually similar but not the same character.
Common uses
- •Copy/pasting polytonic Greek text with correct diacritics
- •Typesetting or proofreading in documents that preserve Greek accent marks
- •Labeling or annotating passages in language-learning materials
- •Content creation for classical/linguistic projects that require exact characters
- •Developer use in Unicode-aware strings, fonts, and text processing
