Latin Small Letter U With Hook Above Letter Meaning
The character ủ is “LATIN SMALL LETTER U WITH HOOK ABOVE” (Unicode U+1EE7). It is primarily used in languages and orthographies that extend the basic Latin alphabet with diacritics, where the hook above changes the pronunciation or meaning of a letter. In practice, you’ll see it when typing Vietnamese and other language data that represent specific vowel sounds using diacritic marks. Because it is a distinct Unicode character (not just a plain “u”), using the correct symbol helps avoid misspellings, incorrect sorting, and display issues in documents and web text.
