V with Accent (ṽṿⱱ-ƲṼṾ) | Accented V Capital Lowercase with ALT Code
V with accent letters include ṽ with a tilde, ṿ with a dot below, ⱱ with a right hook and ⱴ with a curl. Tap any accented V below to copy it, in lowercase or uppercase.
To type accented v rather than copy it, use the ALT code beside each character: Alt+7805 gives ṽ, Alt+7804 gives Ṽ. Every accented V here also carries its Unicode point, decimal value, hexadecimal value and HTML entity.
Accented V Copy and Paste: Accented V With ALT Code List
Every accented V letter with its ALT code, split into lowercase and uppercase so you can go straight to the form you need. Tap a tile to copy that character to your clipboard, then paste it with Ctrl+V on Windows or Cmd+V on Mac.
A leading zero matters more than it looks: Alt+7805 and its siblings address the Windows ANSI set and behave the same in every application, while the same number without that zero is read against the old DOS code page and can return a different symbol. Anything past 255 is a raw Unicode decimal, and if one of those gives you a black block, use the hexadecimal method below instead.

How to Type Accented v Using ALT Code?
Accented V has no representation at all in the Windows ANSI character set. None of its 7 characters can be typed with the familiar four-digit code beginning with a zero, because no such code exists for them. Each one instead carries a raw Unicode decimal. The accented V characters are drawn from Latin Extended-B, Latin Extended Additional and Latin Extended-C, which is what determines whether a plain ALT code can reach them. How reliably that works depends entirely on the program you are typing into. In everyday writing the accented V people actually reach for is ṽ, used in Spanish, and its code is Alt+7805. TYPE 2 is the dependable route for this letter.
TYPE 1 – How to use ALT codes on a keyboard with and without a dedicated numeric keypad?
For V the numbers are plain Unicode decimals rather than ANSI codes: Alt+7805 for ṽ, Alt+7807 for ṿ, Alt+11377 for ⱱ, Alt+11380 for ⱴ. Word and Outlook resolve them correctly. Notepad, command prompts and most web form fields do not, and will return a black box instead, so treat this method as a Word convenience rather than something you can rely on everywhere.
Windows reads the number from the numeric keypad only, never from the digit row above the letters. Full keypad and Num Lock instructions are on the main typing guide.
When the result is a black box: A black box means the program mapped your number against its own legacy code page rather than Unicode and found nothing there. For V that happens with almost everything on this page, which is why TYPE 2 matters here.
TYPE 2 – How to type letters and symbols using ALT codes with the help of hexadecimal code?
For accented V this is not an advanced option, it is the method. Every character on this page sits above code point 255, from ṽ up to ⱴ at U+2C74, and hexadecimal reaches all 7 of them where the decimal codes are patchy.
Unicode is written U+nnnn and the bare hexadecimal is the nnnn part, so U+1E7D and 1E7D both point at ṽ. Any value from the technical section below works the same way.
Other ways to type accented V
macOS has no dead-key combination for accented V. Press Control+Command+Space to open the Character Viewer, search the character by name, and double-click to insert it, or copy it from the list above.
Word has no dedicated shortcut for accented V. Use the ALT code, the Alt+X hexadecimal method above, or Insert, then Symbol, then More Symbols.
Press and hold the v key on the on-screen keyboard. Most keyboards offer no accented v variants in that row, since none are used by the languages shipped by default, so copying from this page is usually faster.
The row offers only the forms your installed keyboard languages cover, so adding a second language in keyboard settings widens what is on offer for v.
HTML: paste the character directly on a UTF-8 page, or use ṽ or ṽ.
CSS: content:”\\1E7D”
JavaScript and Java: “\\u1E7D”
Python: “\\u1e7d”
Accented V Technical Information: Unicode, HTML, CSS and JavaScript Codes
Technical information for every accented V letter: Unicode code point, HTML hexadecimal entity, HTML decimal entity, ALT code, CSS escape, and the escape used in JavaScript, Java and C. These are the values you need when the character cannot travel as a pasted glyph, inside a CSS content property, a minified string, a config file with an uncertain encoding, or a database column still set to latin1.

The character is correct but the font in use does not contain that glyph, so your device shows a placeholder instead. This happens most often with the rarer forms of V. Switch to a font with wide Latin coverage such as Arial, Calibri, Charis SIL or Noto Serif and the letter will display properly. Nothing is wrong with the text itself, and it will paste correctly elsewhere.
Use the precomposed character, which is what every entry on this page is. A plain v followed by a separate combining mark looks identical on screen but counts as two characters, which breaks search, sorting and spell check, and creates duplicate records in databases and forms.
