F with accent ƒ ḟ — copy & ALT codes
F keeps its accents mostly in technical territory: ḟ appears in Irish lenition, and the hooked ƒ serves African languages such as Ewe. Its small collection makes it one of the rarest accented letters. This page collects every accented f recognized by the Unicode Standard — 4 characters in total (2 lowercase, 2 capital and digraph forms)
Each character can be copied with a single click, typed with its ALT code, or produced with the keyboard shortcuts proven below — no memorisation required if you bookmark this page.

How to type accented f on the keyboard
Two dependable methods, demonstrated with ƒ (f with hook) — both tested on Windows 11 and Microsoft 365.
Method 1 — Numeric keypad ALT code
WindowsType ƒ into any Windows program using its ALT code, Alt + 402. You need a working numeric keypad with Num Lock on.
- 1Click exactly where you want the accented f letter to appear — in Word, an email, a browser field, anywhere.
- 2Make sure Num Lock is on. On laptops without a separate keypad, enable the embedded keypad first with Fn + Num Lock.
- 3Press and hold the Alt key.
- 4While keeping Alt held, type 402 on the numeric keypad.
- 5Release Alt — ƒ appears where your cursor is parked.
If a code produces the wrong symbol: very long ALT codes (four digits and beyond) can render as a placeholder glyph in older apps. Repeat the same steps inside a Microsoft Word document — Word resolves the full Unicode range correctly, and you can copy the result anywhere else.
Method 2 — Unicode value + Alt X
Word & OfficeEvery character owns a hexadecimal ID — for ƒ it is U+0192. Microsoft Word converts that ID into the character itself.
- 1Open a Word document (or any Office app that supports Unicode).
- 2Type the four-character code 0192 using your regular keyboard.
- 3Without pressing space, hit Alt + X together.
- 4Word swaps the code for the letter — 0192 becomes ƒinstantly.
This trick works both ways: place your cursor after any accented character and press Alt + X to reveal its Unicode value. It is the fastest way to identify a mystery character you have received in a document.
