HTML Alphabet Entities

Q: How do I display accented Latin letters in HTML?

Use named character references when they exist (for example À for À, é for é), or numeric references such as é (hex) and é (decimal). The Quick Reference table lists Unicode, hex, decimal, and names for each listed letter.

Q: What is the difference between hex and decimal HTML character references?

Both refer to the same Unicode code point. Hex uses an x prefix after the ampersand and hash (&#xNNNN;); decimal uses digits only (&#DDDD;). Hex often matches documentation and U+ notation; decimal is common in older references.

Q: Do plain ASCII letters like A and z need HTML entities?

You can type them directly in UTF-8 documents. Numeric references still exist (for example A for A) and are useful when embedding in attributes, generated strings, or environments where raw bytes must stay ASCII-only.

Q: Why does my accented text show the wrong character or mojibake?

Usually the file encoding and the declared charset do not match, or text was copied from a legacy encoding. Save HTML as UTF-8 and declare in the first 1024 bytes of the document.

Q: What does a dash mean in the HTML entity column?

HTML5 does not define a short named entity for that glyph in this list. Use the hexadecimal or decimal numeric character reference from the same row instead.

HTML alphabet entities reference: Latin letters and accented characters

What You'll Learn

HTML alphabet entities are character references for Latin letters: plain ASCII capitals and lowercase, letters with acute, grave, circumflex, tilde, diaeresis, macron, ogonek, and many other diacritics, plus special forms such as the angstrom sign (Å). You can write them as hexadecimal (é), decimal (é), or named entities (é) when a name is defined in HTML5.

This page is a reference hub for hundreds of glyphs in one table. Use the search box to filter by symbol, U+ notation, hex, decimal, or entity name. For symbols outside this Latin-focused list, open the full HTML entities index.

⚡ Quick Reference — HTML Alphabet Entities

Filter by symbol, Unicode (e.g. U+00E9), hex, decimal, or named entity. The table lists every row from the reference (no inner scroll).

Complete HTML Example

Named entities for common words, numeric references, and a CSS content escape for a letter without placing the raw character in markup:

html

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
 <meta charset="utf-8">
 <style>
  #accent-css::after {
   content: "\00EA";
  }
 </style>
</head>
<body>

<p>Caf&eacute; r&eacute;sum&eacute; na&iuml;ve pi&ntilde;ata</p>
<p>Hex: &#x00E9; &#x00F1; &nbsp; Decimal: &#233; &#241;</p>
<p id="accent-css">Via CSS escape (ea): </p>

</body>
</html>

Try It Yourself

🌐 Browser Support

Numeric and named character references for Unicode-defined Latin letters are supported in all modern browsers when the document uses a compatible encoding (UTF-8 recommended):

Chrome 1+

Firefox 1+

Safari 1+

Edge 12+

Opera 4+

Android 4.4+

iOS Safari 1+

👀 Live Preview

Latin letters and accents rendered from character references:

Basic Latin A B Z a z (a z)

Accents À É ñ ü Ø ç

Large type Ç ß Ñ Ý

Monospace ID: réf-001 — café

Mixed references Naïve naïve (same glyph, two syntaxes)

🧠 How It Works

Named entities

When HTML defines a name (for example À, é), it is easy to read and safe inside UTF-8 files.

HTML markup

Hexadecimal and decimal

Every row lists &#x…; and &#…; for the same code point. Use either form when there is no short name or when generating markup programmatically.

HTML markup

UTF-8 and the charset

You can also paste the actual Unicode character into the file if the whole pipeline is UTF-8. Character references remain useful for clarity, email templates, and ASCII-only transports.

Document encoding

Same visual result

Valid references for one scalar value render the same letter; pick one style per project for consistency.

✅

Use Cases

Alphabet entities are commonly used for:

🇺🇸 Multilingual sites

French, Spanish, Portuguese, German, Nordic, and other Latin-script languages in headings and body copy.

📝 Names and addresses

People and place names with accents, umlauts, and special letters in forms and confirmations.

📄 Legal and academic text

Citations, titles, and quotations where precise spelling must match the source.

🔧 CMS and email HTML

Templates that must survive editors or transports that prefer escaped characters over raw UTF-8.

🔬 Science typography

Unit symbols and letter-like marks such as the angstrom sign (Å) alongside regular Latin text.

🧰 Programmatic output

Server-side or client-side code that builds HTML from ASCII-only string literals.

💡 Best Practices

Do

Declare <meta charset="utf-8"> and save files as UTF-8
Use named entities from the table when you want readable source
Keep one reference style (named vs numeric) within a component
Copy codes from the table to avoid typos in long hex values
Escape & as & when it starts a literal ampersand in text

Don’t

Double-encode (&eacute; instead of é)
Mix legacy single-byte encodings with UTF-8 references blindly
Paste CSS hex escapes (\00EA) into HTML text nodes
Assume every web font covers rare Latin Extended glyphs
Rely on numeric codes without verifying the intended Unicode code point

Key Takeaways

Three ways in HTML: hex, decimal, and named (when available)

é é é

UTF-8 plus charset meta is the default stack for modern Latin text

<meta charset="utf-8">

The Quick Reference table lists symbol, Unicode, hex, decimal, and entity for each row

A dash in the entity column means use numeric references only

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

How do I display accented Latin letters in HTML?

Use named references such as é or numeric é / é. The table on this page lists the exact codes for each listed letter.

What is the difference between hex and decimal HTML character references?

Both specify the same Unicode code point. Hex uses &#x…;; decimal uses &# digits only ;. Choose one convention and stick to it in a given codebase.

Do plain ASCII letters like A and z need HTML entities?

Not in UTF-8 HTML. Entities are optional for readability, templating, or ASCII-only pipelines. The table still lists them for completeness.

Why does my accented text show the wrong character or mojibake?

Check file encoding, HTTP Content-Type, and <meta charset>. Mismatched encoding is the usual cause of garbled accents.

What does a dash mean in the HTML entity column?

There is no standard short named entity for that row in this reference. Use the hex or decimal column instead.
