What Is the Lowercase T Latin Entity?

On this page, Lowercase T Latin is the combining mark at Unicode U+036D (COMBINING LATIN SMALL LETTER T). It places a small letter t on the preceding base character — used in linguistics, phonetic transcription, and medieval notation.

Remember
Mark          combining latin small letter t
Unicode       U+036D
Hex entity    ͭ
Decimal       ͭ
Named entity  (none)
CSS escape    \036D
Order         base + mark  →  nͭ

Combining marks are not standalone letters. Write the base character first, then the entity (e.g. nͭ → nͭ). This is not the same as typing t (U+0074).

Hex + Decimal + CSS

Three ways to attach U+036D to a base (no named entity).

html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
  <meta charset="UTF-8">
  <title>Lowercase T Latin (U+036D)</title>
  <style>
    #point::after {
      content: "\036D";
    }
  </style>
</head>
<body>
  <p>Using Hex Code: n&#x036D;</p>
  <p>Using HTML Code: n&#877;</p>
  <p id="point">Using CSS Entity: n</p>
  <p>More bases: a&#x036D; o&#x036D;</p>
</body>
</html>
Try It Yourself

How It Works

1. Hex: U+036D → &#x036D; after the base. The browser combines them into nͭ.

2. Decimal: same code point as 877 → &#877; 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 \036D in content (not an HTML entity). #point::after appends the combining mark after the base text ending in n.

Pitfalls & Tips

Common mistakes when working with combining Latin small letter t.

Order

Base first, then mark

Write n&#x036D;, not &#x036D;n. Combining marks attach to the preceding character.

Named

No named entity

HTML5 does not define a named entity for U+036D. Use &#x036D; or &#877;.

Look-alikes

Not plain t

Typed t is U+0074. This mark is U+036D and only makes sense after a base.

Fonts

Need combining coverage

Some fonts omit Combining Diacritical Marks. Prefer a font that includes U+036D for a reliable glyph.

CSS vs HTML

Do not mix escapes

\036D belongs in CSS. &#x036D; / &#877; belong in HTML.

UTF-8

Declare charset

If you paste the mark directly, serve the page as UTF-8 with <meta charset="UTF-8">.

Browser Support

Combining Latin small letter t (U+036D) and its entity forms (&#x036D;, &#877;, CSS \\036D) are supported in all mainstream browsers. Glyph stacking depends on the font.
