Characters from the Latin script encoded in the Unicode Standard
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 symbols in Latin Extended-B) and the Vietnamese alphabet (Latin Extended Additional). Latin Extended-C contains additions for Uighur and the Claudian letters. Latin Extended-D comprises characters that are mostly of interest to medievalists. Latin Extended-E mostly comprises characters used for German dialectology (Teuthonista).[1] Latin Extended-F and -G contain characters for phonetic transcription.
As of version 16.0 of the Unicode Standard, 1,487 characters in the following 19 blocks are classified as belonging to the Latin script.[2]
In addition, a number of Latin-like characters are encoded in the Currency Symbols, Control Pictures, CJK Compatibility, Enclosed Alphanumerics, Enclosed CJK Letters and Months, Mathematical Alphanumeric Symbols, and Enclosed Alphanumeric Supplement blocks, but, although they are Latin letters graphically, they have the script property common, and, so, do not belong to the Latin script in Unicode terms. Lisu also consists almost entirely of Latin forms, but uses its own script property.
Table of characters[edit]In this table those characters with the Unicode script property of Latin are highlighted in colour, indicating the version of Unicode they were introduced in. Reserved code points (which may be assigned as characters at a future date) have a grey background. All characters that do not belong to the Latin script have a white background (and the version of Unicode they were introduced in is therefore not indicated).
