What You'll Learn

How to display the uppercase ezh with caron (Ǯ) in HTML using hexadecimal, decimal, and CSS escape methods. Used in the Uralic Phonetic Alphabet, Skolt Sami, Laz, and Livonian orthography, this letter combines the ezh (Ʒ) base with a caron (háček) accent. It is U+01EE in the Latin Extended-B block.

Render it with Ǯ, Ǯ, or CSS escape \1EE. There is no named HTML entity for this character, so numeric codes or CSS must be used.

🧠 How It Works

1

Hexadecimal Code

&#x01EE; uses the Unicode hexadecimal value 01EE to display the uppercase ezh caron. The x prefix indicates hexadecimal format.

HTML markup
2

Decimal HTML Code

&#494; uses the decimal Unicode value 494 to display the same character. A common method for Latin Extended-B characters.

CSS Entity

\1EE is used in CSS stylesheets, particularly in the content property of pseudo-elements like ::before and ::after.

Same visual result

All three methods produce the glyph: Ǯ. Unicode U+01EE sits in Latin Extended-B. Lowercase counterpart: U+01EF (ǯ). There is no named HTML entity. Do not confuse with plain ezh Ʒ (U+01B7).

Use Cases

The uppercase ezh caron (Ǯ) is commonly used in:

🇪🇺 Skolt Sami

Essential in Skolt Sami orthography for correct capital-letter spelling and localization.

🎤 Uralic phonetics

Uralic Phonetic Alphabet and related linguistic notation requiring ezh with caron.

📚 Linguistic studies

Language research, documentation, and academic papers on extended Latin characters.

🌐 Laz & Livonian

Orthographies that use ezh caron variants in capitalized words and proper names.

Scholarly publications and linguistic databases requiring extended Latin glyphs.

⚙ Programmatic HTML

When building HTML from language data, using &#494; or &#x01EE; guarantees correct output.

🔍 Search & SEO

Correct rendering so specialized linguistic content can be found and indexed.

💡 Best Practices

Do

  • Use &#494; or &#x01EE; in HTML (no named entity exists)
  • Serve pages as UTF-8; you can also type Ǯ directly in UTF-8 source
  • Set appropriate lang attributes (e.g. lang="sms" for Skolt Sami)
  • Use fonts that support Latin Extended-B (U+0180–U+024F)
  • Distinguish Ǯ (ezh caron) from Ʒ (ezh) and Ƹ (ezh reverse)

Don’t

  • Assume a named entity exists—there is none for Ǯ
  • Substitute plain ezh Ʒ or Z when Ǯ is required in orthography
  • Put CSS escape \1EE in HTML text nodes
  • Use padded Unicode notation like U+001EE—the correct value is U+01EE
  • Use \001EE in CSS—the correct escape is \1EE
