Definition

What Is Uppercase D Stroke?

Uppercase D stroke (Đ) is the Unicode character at U+0110 in Latin Extended-A. Official name: LATIN CAPITAL LETTER D WITH STROKE — a capital D with a horizontal stroke, common in Croatian, Serbian, Vietnamese, and Sámi.

Remember

Character     Đ
Unicode       U+0110
Named entity  &Dstrok;  (capital D)
Hex entity    &#x110;
Decimal       &#272;
CSS escape    \0110
Not the same  đ · Ð · D

Prefer &Dstrok; in HTML markup — the capital D in the name matters. Numeric forms and typing Đ in UTF-8 also work. For the lowercase letter, use &dstrok; (đ).

    #point::after {
      content: "\0110";
    }
  </style>

Try It Yourself

How It Works

1. Named: &Dstrok; (capital D) is the clearest HTML form for U+0110. Lowercase &dstrok; is a different character (đ).

2. Hex: U+0110 → Đ in HTML. Same glyph as the named entity.

3. Decimal: same code point as 272 → Đ. Same glyph as hex and named.

4. CSS: use \0110 in content (not an HTML entity). #point::after appends that Đ after the paragraph text.

5. Typed / label: paste Đ in UTF-8, or write &Dstrok;akovo with lang="hr".

Pitfalls & Tips

Common mistakes when working with U+0110.

Case

&Dstrok; ≠ &dstrok;

&Dstrok; → Đ (capital). &dstrok; → đ (lowercase). Entity names are case-sensitive.

vs Ð

Not eth

Ð (Ð) is capital eth. D stroke Đ and eth look similar in some fonts but are different letters.

vs D

Not a plain capital D

ASCII D (U+0044) has no stroke. Use &Dstrok; when the language requires Đ.

Fonts

Latin Extended-A coverage

Most modern fonts include Đ. Prefer UTF-8 encoding so typed characters and entities both render correctly.

CSS vs HTML

Do not mix escapes

\0110 belongs in CSS strings. &Dstrok; / Đ / Đ belong in HTML.

A11y

Mark the language

When Đ appears in real words, set lang (e.g. hr, sr, vi) so screen readers pronounce names correctly.
