🧠 How It Works

1

Hexadecimal Code

&#x0319; uses the Unicode hexadecimal value 0319 for the combining right tack below. Place it after the base character.

HTML markup
2

Decimal HTML Code

&#793; uses the decimal Unicode value 793 to display the same combining character.

HTML markup
3

CSS Entity

\0319 is used in CSS stylesheets in the content property of pseudo-elements like ::after, appended to base text.

CSS stylesheet
=

Combines with base letter

All three methods attach U+0319 below a base character (e.g. a̙). There is no named HTML entity. Previous: Right Tack (U+22A2, spaced symbol).

Use Cases

The Right Tack Below (U+0319) is commonly used in:

🔤 Phonetic Transcription

IPA notation to represent specific phonetic features below a letter.

∑ Mathematical Notation

Logical or type-theoretic symbols when combined with a base character.

📐 Type Theory

Formal semantics and type system notation in academic or technical docs.

📚 Linguistics Research

Document phonological or morphological analysis with combining diacritics.

📄 Academic Papers

Show specialized notation in linguistics, mathematics, or logic publications.

📖 Dictionary Sites

Display pronunciation guides and phonetic transcriptions correctly.

💡 Best Practices

Do

  • Place the combining mark after the base character (e.g. a&#x0319;)
  • Use fonts that support Combining Diacritical Marks (U+0319)
  • Keep one entity style per project for consistency
  • Test with assistive technologies for phonetic or technical content
  • Be aware of Unicode normalization (NFC/NFD) when comparing text

Don’t

  • Use U+0319 alone without a base character—it won’t display meaningfully
  • Confuse combining U+0319 with spaced U+22A2 (⊢ / &vdash;)
  • Confuse U+0319 with U+0318 (combining left tack below)
  • Put the combining mark before the base letter
  • Assume a named HTML entity exists—there is none
  • Use CSS \0319 inside HTML text nodes

Key Takeaways

1

Two HTML references plus CSS attach U+0319 below a base letter

&#x0319; &#793;
2

For CSS, use \0319 in the content property after base text
