🧠 How It Works

1

Hexadecimal Code

&#x0164; uses the Unicode hexadecimal value 0164 to display the character. The x prefix indicates hexadecimal format.

HTML markup
2

Decimal HTML Code

&#356; uses the decimal Unicode value 356 to display the same character. A common method when a numeric reference is needed.

HTML markup
3

Named Entity

&Tcaron; is the named entity for T caron—readable in source HTML and the preferred option for Czech and Slovak language content.

4

CSS Entity

\0164 is used in CSS stylesheets, particularly in the content property of pseudo-elements like ::before and ::after.

Use Cases

The uppercase T caron (Ť) is commonly used in:

🇵 Czech & Slovak

Essential for correct Czech and Slovak spelling at sentence starts and in proper nouns (e.g. Ťažký, Ťahanovce). Use the entity or UTF-8 for proper display.

📚 Language Learning

Teach correct spelling and pronunciation for Czech and Slovak, where Ť represents a palatalized or soft t sound.

🌐 Multilingual Sites

Support proper rendering of Slovak and Czech place names, personal names, and content on international websites.

📄 Typography & Publishing

Ensure correct character display in digital publications, dictionaries, and linguistic resources for Central European languages.

🔬 Linguistic & Academic

Used in Slavic language studies, orthography guides, and academic papers on Czech and Slovak linguistics.

♿ Accessibility

Using the correct character (U+0164) with proper lang attributes (e.g. lang="sk" or lang="cs") ensures assistive technologies pronounce content correctly.

🎨 CSS Generated Content

Using \0164 in the CSS content property to insert Ť via pseudo-elements.

💡 Best Practices

Do

  • Serve pages as UTF-8; you can type Ť directly in UTF-8 source
  • Use &Tcaron; for readable HTML when a named form is preferred
  • Set lang="cs" or lang="sk" on Czech/Slovak content for correct pronunciation hints
  • Use \0164 in CSS content when generating the symbol via pseudo-elements
  • Distinguish Ť (caron) from plain T (U+0054) and Ţ (cedilla)

Don’t

  • Substitute plain T when Ť is required in Czech or Slovak text
  • Confuse Ť (caron) with Ţ (cedilla) or plain T (U+0054)
  • Confuse Ť (T caron) with Š (S caron)—different letters
  • Put CSS escape \0164 in HTML text nodes
  • Use \00164 in CSS—the correct escape is \0164
