Definition

What Is Uppercase Eng?

Uppercase eng (Ŋ) is the Unicode character at U+014A in Latin Extended-A. Official name: LATIN CAPITAL LETTER ENG — a capital form of the eng letter used for the velar nasal in Sami, Greenlandic, and related orthographies.

Remember

Character     Ŋ
Unicode       U+014A
Named entity  &ENG;  (all capitals)
Hex entity    &#x014A;
Decimal       &#330;
CSS escape    \014A
Not the same  ŋ · ng · N

Prefer &ENG; in HTML markup — the entity name is all capitals. Numeric forms and typing Ŋ in UTF-8 also work. For the lowercase letter, use &eng; (ŋ).

Try It Yourself

How It Works

1. Named: &ENG; (all capitals) is the clearest HTML form for U+014A. Lowercase &eng; is a different character (ŋ).

2. Hex: U+014A → Ŋ in HTML. Same glyph as the named entity.

3. Decimal: same code point as 330 → Ŋ. Same glyph as hex and named.

4. CSS: use \014A in content (not an HTML entity). #point::after appends that Ŋ after the paragraph text.

5. Typed / pair: paste Ŋ in UTF-8, or show both cases with &ENG; / &eng;.

Pitfalls & Tips

Common mistakes when working with U+014A.

Case

&ENG; ≠ &eng;

&ENG; → Ŋ (capital). &eng; → ŋ (lowercase). Entity names are case-sensitive.

vs ng

Not the digraph ng

Eng is one letter. Typing NG is two characters and may not match the orthography or IPA symbol.

vs N

Not a plain capital N

ASCII N (U+004E) has no descending eng leg. Use &ENG; when the language requires eng.

Fonts

Extended Latin coverage

Most modern fonts include eng. Prefer UTF-8 and a font that covers Latin Extended-A if glyphs look missing.

CSS vs HTML

Do not mix escapes

\014A belongs in CSS strings. &ENG; / Ŋ / Ŋ belong in HTML.

Mark the language

When Ŋ appears in real words, set lang on the element or page so screen readers pronounce the text correctly.

Compatibility

Remember

Key Takeaways

Unicode: uppercase eng is U+014A (decimal 330) — glyph Ŋ.
HTML: prefer &ENG; (all capitals) — also Ŋ / Ŋ.
CSS: use \014A inside content for generated text.
Meaning: Ŋ is capital eng — not ŋ (&eng;), not the digraph NG.

One line: U+014A → &ENG; / Ŋ / Ŋ / CSS \014A.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I display Ŋ in HTML?

Use &ENG; (named), Ŋ (hex), Ŋ (decimal), type Ŋ directly in UTF-8, or the CSS escape \014A in content. Prefer &ENG; in normal HTML.

What is the Unicode value for uppercase eng?

U+014A (LATIN CAPITAL LETTER ENG). Hex 014A, decimal 330. It belongs to Latin Extended-A (U+0100–U+017F).

Is there a named HTML entity for U+014A?

Yes. Use &ENG; (all capitals). Numeric forms Ŋ and Ŋ also work. Note: &eng; (lowercase) is a different letter (ŋ).

Is Ŋ the same as ng or ŋ?

No. Ŋ is a single capital letter (U+014A). ŋ is U+014B (&eng;). Writing n + g is two characters, not the eng letter.

When should I use &ENG;?

Use it for Sami, Greenlandic, and other orthographies that need capital eng in titles and uppercase text — or when casing lowercase eng — not as a substitute for the digraph NG.

What is the difference between HTML code and CSS entity for U+014A?

HTML entities (&ENG;, Ŋ, or Ŋ) go in markup. The CSS escape \014A goes in stylesheet strings (usually content on ::before/::after).
