	Diacritic
		The main usage of a diacritic is to change the phonetic meaning of the letter, but the term is also used in a more general sense of changing the meaning of the letter or even the whole word.
		Diacritics can be used for emphasis (érg koud for very cold) or for disambiguation between the numeral one (één appel, one apple) and the indefinite article (een appel, an apple).
		Vietnamese uses the horn for the letters ơ and ư; circumflex for the letters â, ê, and ô; breve for the letter ă; and a bar through the letter đ.

	Diacritic - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A diacritical mark or diacritic, sometimes called an accent mark, is a mark added to a letter to alter a word's pronunciation or to distinguish between similar words.
		Note that diacritic is a noun and diacritical is the corresponding adjective.
		In Hanyu Pinyin, the four tones of Mandarin Chinese are denoted by the macron, acute, caron and grave diacritics.

		Diacritics are small supplementary signs written with (usually over) other letters (usually vowels) to indicate a different form of the letter.
		Letters with diacritics are often, though not always, pronounced differently from unmodified letters; for instance, in German, "o" stands for /o/, but "ö" stands for /2/.
		The IPA has several diacritics that can be written with other symbols to modify their phonetic value.

		But not all marks are diacritical, for example a tittle, the dot on the letter i is just a part of the letter.
		Acute is also sometimes used in Russian to indicate place of stress (in dictionaries and encyclopedias, or in textbooks for foreigners learning Russian; it also serves to disambiguate meaning (e.g., in Russian pisát means 'to write', but písat means 'to piss')).
		Vietnamese uses the horn for the letters ơ and ư; circumflex for the letters â, ê, and ô; and breve for the letter ă.

	Wells: Orthographic diacritics
		In this article we discuss the various diacritics that are so used and the problems this has given rise to in a multilingual computing environment — problems now arguably on the way to a satisfactory solution through the adoption of the international standard known as Unicode.
		For example, in Bamgboṣe 1966 the diacritic is printed as a dot in the serif font of the main text, but as a vertical line in the sans serif font of the examples.
		Diacritics are represented in Unicode both as separate characters and as part of prefabricated characters.

		Note that one can resort to a composite encoding scheme to reduce this requirement, but that would mean giving up on integration into today's computing platforms which for the most part do not support such schemes.
		In addition, the heavy use of diacritical marks in Vietnamese text calls for a keyboard input scheme that does not require extra keystrokes such as a special "compose" key to generate accented letters.
		With VIQR, accented Vietnamese letters are represented by the vowel followed by ASCII characters whose appearances resemble those of the corresponding Vietnamese diacritical marks.

		This work uses VIQR encoding as specified by the Vietnamese Standardization Working Group in their May 1993 specification on encoding the Vietnamese Language.
		The following table is taken from their report and should clarify how the diacritics of the language are encoded in a number of formats.
		The only change is that in the standard form of VIQR, greater-than and less-than signs are used group vowels and their diacritics, whereas the special significance of those signs in HTML makes it much easier, and still legible, to do without them.
