About the letter ĥ
ĥ is Unicode U+0125, named LATIN SMALL LETTER H WITH CIRCUMFLEX. It is used in Esperanto. A small caret (^) above a vowel. In French it often marks a vanished s (forêt from forest), in Portuguese a closed vowel, in Welsh a long vowel, and in Vietnamese a distinct vowel (â, ê, ô). See the ĥ character page for every code and shortcut.
Troubleshooting
- Ctrl+Shift+U does not work in some Android apps on ChromeOS. Use it in Chrome and web apps.
- Make sure you type the code in lowercase or uppercase; both work, but do not include "U+".
- If nothing happens, check that an input method other than the default English one is not active.
