Latin Small Letter A With Circumflex And Acute Letter Meaning
“ấ” is the lowercase form of the Latin letter A combined with two diacritics: a circumflex (ˆ) and an acute accent (´). In Unicode it is named “LATIN SMALL LETTER A WITH CIRCUMFLEX AND ACUTE” (U+1EA5). Because it is a single precomposed character, it’s useful when you need the exact visual form in text, typography, or data. It commonly appears in Vietnamese writing systems and in properly annotated Latin-based text. When building web content, prefer the character’s Unicode value to avoid missing-font or incorrect combining behavior.
Common uses
