A diacritic is a "glyph" added to a letter. It is also known as a diacritical mark and may appear above or below a letter. One type of diacritic is accents. French has acute, grave, and circumflex accents but there are much more.
The caron is an inverted circumflex used in Czech (Czech háček). An example is the Czech surname Shkoda (written Škoda), and Antoneen Dvokzshak (written Antonín Dvořák).
The double acute accent is used exclusively in written Hungarian, and is sometimes called the Hungarumlaut.
