[⧼Purge⧽ Template:Grave/doc]

The {{grave}} or {{`}} (grave accent) diacritics template returns the UTF-16 HTML [hexadecimal] numeric character entity for a precomposed character with a grave accent diacritic. (As a fallback, it returns a combining character for any Latin or Cyrillic character.)

With the tex option, the template returns the LaTeX code for the acute accent character.

Note: This is for XHTML5 future proofing, where named character entities should not be used, except the following four

Named entity Glyph
&amp; &
&lt; <
&gt; >
&quot; "

Numeric character entities or glyphs (except the four above glyphs, which have a special meaning in HTML) should be used instead.[1]

Usage

HTML

{{`|alphabetic character}}

or

{{`|alphabetic character|htm}}

where character is either from

  • {A, E, I, O, U, a, e, i, o, u}: to get a precomposed character;
  • any other character from the Latin alphabet: to get a combining character (where an almost perfect accented character is created);
  • or any character from the Cyrillic alphabet: to get a combining character (where an almost perfect accented character is created).

LaTeX

{{`|any Latin or Cyrillic character|tex}}
