Hook (diacritic)




]]
In mark placed on top of vowels in the Vietnamese Alphabet . In shape it looks like a tiny question mark without the dot underneath. For example, a capital A with a hook is "Ả", and a lower case "u" with a hook is "ủ". It functions as a tone marker. Vowels with this symbol are pronounced with a falling then rising tone. The hook is usually written to the right of the Circumflex in conventional Vietnamese orthography.
