Diaeresis (diacritic)
text:
Diaeresis is a name for the two dots diacritical mark (◌̈) as used to indicate the separation of two distinct vowel letters in adjacent syllables when an instance of diaeresis occurs, so as to distinguish from a digraph or diphthong. It consists of a two dots diacritic placed over a letter, generally a vowel; when that letter is an ⟨i⟩, the diacritic replaces the tittle: ⟨ï⟩. The diaeresis diacritic indicates that two adjoining letters that would normally form a digraph and be pronounced as one
