Over a thousand characters from the Latin script are encoded in the Unicode Standard, grouped in several basic and extended Latin blocks.The extended ranges contain mainly precomposed letters plus diacritics that are equivalently encoded with combining diacritics, as well as some ligatures and distinct letters, used for example in the orthographies of various African languages (including click ...
The Basic Latin Unicode block, [3] sometimes informally called C0 Controls and Basic Latin, [4] is the first block of the Unicode standard, and the only block which is encoded in one byte in UTF-8. The block contains all the letters and control codes of the ASCII encoding.
The definition of a Latin-script letter for this list is a character encoded in the Unicode Standard that has a script property of 'Latin' and the general category of 'Letter'. An overview of the distribution of Latin-script letters in Unicode is given in Latin script in Unicode.
The final proposal for Unicode encoding of the script was submitted by two cuneiform scholars working with an experienced Unicode proposal writer in June 2004. [4] The base character inventory is derived from the list of Ur III signs compiled by the Cuneiform Digital Library Initiative of UCLA based on the inventories of Miguel Civil, Rykle Borger (2003), and Robert Englund.
32 control codes: U+0080 to U+009F Latin-1 punctuation and symbols: 32 punctuation and symbols: U+00A0 to U+00BF Letters: 30 pairs of majuscule and minuscule accented Latin characters: U+00C0 to U+00D6, U+00D8 to U+00F6 and U+00F8 to U+00FF Mathematical operators: The U+00D7 × MULTIPLICATION SIGN and U+00F7 ÷ DIVISION SIGN symbols. U+00D7 and ...
The Latin-1 Supplement block contains the feminine and masculine ordinal indicators ª and º. The Latin Extended-C block contains one superscript, ⱽ. The Latin Extended-D block contains six superscripts: ꝰ ꟲ ꟳ ꟴ ꟸ ꟹ. The Latin Extended-E block contains five superscripts: ꭜ ꭝ ꭞ ꭟ ꭩ.
Combining Diacritical Marks is a Unicode block containing the most common combining characters.It also contains the character "Combining Grapheme Joiner", which prevents canonical reordering of combining characters, and despite the name, actually separates characters that would otherwise be considered a single grapheme in a given context.
The following list are the graphically Latin letters in the Unicode Standard, regardless of whether they are defined as Latin script, as collated by shape (base letter) or by phonetic value. [1] Many are hard-coded formatting variants.
