Combining comma above right (U+0315) is a combining mark in the Combining Diacritical Marks block. It does not stand alone like a normal letter — it attaches to the character that comes before it, toward the upper right. Example: a + ̕ renders as a̕.
Remember
Character combining comma above right (after a base)
Unicode U+0315
Hex entity ̕
Decimal ̕
CSS escape \0315
Named entity (none for U+0315)
Example a̕ → a̕
Not the same , U+002C · U+0313 · U+0314
Prefer a precomposed character when one exists for the combination you need. Use U+0315 when composing marks dynamically, for NFD text, or bases without a precomposed form.
Comma above right using Hex Code: a̕
Comma above right using HTML Code: a̕
Comma above right using CSS Entity: a̕
Typed directly: a̕
How It Works
1. Hex: write the base letter, then ̕ → a̕ becomes a̕.
2. Decimal: same mark as 789 → a̕. Same result as hex.
3. CSS: put base + escape in one string: content: "a\0315". #point::after appends that sequence after the paragraph text.
4. Typed: in UTF-8 you can type a then the combining comma above right. Order must stay base first, mark second.
Pitfalls & Tips
Common mistakes when working with combining comma above right.
Order
Base letter first
Write a̕, never put U+0315 before the letter you want to accent.
Named?
No named entity for U+0315
Use numeric forms. , is for spacing , (U+002C), not this combining mark.
0315 vs others
Not U+0313 or U+0314
U+0315 is above right. U+0313 is comma above; U+0314 is comma above reversed. Pick the code point that matches the mark you need.
CSS vs HTML
Do not mix escapes
\0315 belongs in CSS strings. ̕ / ̕ belong in HTML.
Fonts
Combining support varies
Some fonts place the mark poorly. If layout looks wrong, try a different font or a precomposed character when available.
Semicolon
End references
Always finish with ; — write ̕, not ̕.

HTML: base first, then ̕ or ̕ (e.g. a̕).
CSS: use "a\0315" (or another base) inside content.
