Double grave accent is the Unicode character at U+030F in the Combining Diacritical Marks block. Official name: COMBINING DOUBLE GRAVE ACCENT. It attaches above the previous base letter — for example ȍ → ȍ. Used in Serbo-Croatian, Slovene, and IPA (extra-low tone).

How It Works
1. Hex: write the base letter, then ̏ → ȍ. Preferred when there is no named entity.
2. Decimal: same code point as 783 → ̏ after the base letter. Same result as hex.
3. CSS: use \030F in content after a letter in the string (not an HTML entity). #point::after appends ȍ.
4. Typed: paste the combining mark after a letter in a UTF-8 document.
5. Precomposed: prefer ȍȉ (and similar letters) when those characters exist.
Pitfalls & Tips
Common mistakes when working with Double Grave Accent.
Order
Base letter first
Write ȍ, not ̏o. Combining marks attach to the previous character.
Pre
Prefer precomposed when possible
Type ȍȉ instead of building with U+030F when those letters exist.
̀
Not single grave
U+0300 is combining grave (one mark). U+030F is double grave (two marks).
`
Not `
` is the spacing mark U+0060 (`). It does not combine with a letter the way U+030F does.
CSS vs HTML
Do not mix escapes
\030F belongs in CSS strings. ̏ / ̏ belong in HTML after a base letter.
Fonts
Diacritic font coverage
Some fonts omit U+030F. Prefer a font with Combining Diacritical Marks (and Latin Extended) coverage for display.
Compatibility

One line:U+030F → base + ̏ / ̏ / CSS \030F (or type ȍ/ȉ when available).
