Combining Diaeresis Below Symbol ◌̤ Copy and Paste
A combining double-dot mark placed below a base character. This page gives the exact Unicode identity, copy value, HTML and code forms, keyboard guidance, and source links for combining diaeresis below.
What does ◌̤ mean?
U+0324 is a combining mark, so it attaches to the preceding base character. Unicode does not provide one precomposed q dot symbol for every dot position, so q̤, q̇, or q̣ are usually built from q plus a combining mark. The dotted circle shown here is only a display carrier; the copied value is the combining mark itself.
U+0324 is a combining two-dot mark below. It is not the middle dot ·, not a standalone floating dot, and not the single combining dot above used in ṁ.
Best uses for Combining Diaeresis Below
- Linguistic transcription that needs a two-dot mark below
- Testing q dot symbol and combining mark rendering
- Specialized text where diacritics are meaningful
Avoid U+0324 as a decorative standalone dot because combining marks need a base character to render predictably.
How to type ◌̤
Windows
Use Character Map or type 0324 then Alt+X after a base character in Microsoft Word.
macOS
Use Unicode Hex Input or a character viewer workflow for combining marks.
Mobile
Copy the mark and place it after the letter it should modify; rendering depends on the font.
Unicode identity and rendering notes
COMBINING DIAERESIS BELOW is encoded as U+0324 in the Combining Diacritical Marks block. In HTML you can write it as ̤; in CSS generated content you can use \0324; and in JavaScript strings you can use \u0324.
The copied character is plain Unicode text, so its exact shape depends on the font, operating system, and whether the symbol is rendered as text or emoji. Use the official Unicode name and code point when you need to distinguish it from similar dot symbols.
