On this page, Lowercase H Latin is the combining mark at Unicode U+036A (COMBINING LATIN SMALL LETTER H). It places a small letter hon the preceding base character — used in linguistics and phonetic notation.
Remember
Mark combining latin small letter h
Unicode U+036A
Hex entity ͪ
Decimal ͪ
Named entity (none)
CSS escape \036A
Order base + mark → pͪ
Combining marks are not standalone letters. Write the base character first, then the entity (e.g. pͪ → pͪ). This is not the same as typing h (U+0068).

Using Hex Code: pͪ
Using HTML Code: pͪ
Using CSS Entity: pͪ
More bases: tͪ aͪ
How It Works
1. Hex:U+036A → ͪ after the base. The browser combines them into pͪ.
2. Decimal: same code point as 874 → ͪ after the base. Same result as hex.
3. Named: HTML5 does not define a named entity for this mark — use hex or decimal instead.
4. CSS: use \036A in content (not an HTML entity). #point::after appends the combining mark after the base text ending in p.
Pitfalls & Tips
Common mistakes when working with combining Latin small letter h.
Order
Base first, then mark
Write pͪ, not ͪp. Combining marks attach to the preceding character.
Look-alikes
Not letter h or hook ɦ
h is U+0068. H with hook is U+0266. This mark is combining and needs a base.
Named
No &…; shortcut
HTML5 has no named entity for U+036A. Use ͪ or ͪ.
CSS vs HTML
Do not mix escapes
\036A belongs in CSS. ͪ / ͪ belong in HTML after the base.
Encoding
Declare UTF-8
If you type the combining character directly, keep <meta charset="UTF-8"> so the file is not misread.
Fonts
Check glyph coverage
Rendering of combining letter stacks is font-dependent. Pick a font that supports U+036A if the mark is missing.
Compatibility
Browser Support
Combining Latin small letter h (U+036A) and its entity forms (ͪ, ͪ, CSS \\036A) are supported in all modern browsers. Visual stacking depends on font coverage.

Bottom line: Prefer baseͪ for readable HTML. Use \\036A only inside CSS content.

Key Takeaways
Unicode: this combining mark is U+036A (decimal 874).
HTML: prefer baseͪ — or use baseͪ (no named entity).
CSS: use \036A inside content after a base.
Watch out: combining U+036A ≠ letter h ≠ hook ɦ.
One line: base + U+036A → baseͪ / baseͪ / CSS \036A.
Frequently Asked Questions
Use ͪ (hex), ͪ (decimal), or the CSS escape \036A in the content property. Place the mark immediately after the base character (e.g. pͪ). There is no named HTML entity.
U+036A (COMBINING LATIN SMALL LETTER H). Hex 36A, decimal 874. It belongs to Combining Diacritical Marks (U+0300–U+036F).
No. HTML5 does not define a named entity for U+036A. Use numeric references like ͪ or ͪ.
Use it in linguistics, phonetic notation, and scholarly stacks where a small h sits above a base letter. Always write the base first, then the combining mark.
HTML entities (ͪ or ͪ) go in markup after the base. The CSS escape \036A is used in stylesheets (usually in the content property of ::after). Both apply the same combining letter.
No. Letter h is U+0068. H with hook ɦ is U+0266. U+036A is a combining mark that attaches above (or with) the preceding base character.
