R with accent ŕ ŗ ř ȑ — copy & ALT codes
R’s accents sort Europe from east to west. Czech and Slovak roll ŕ and famously shape ř — the sound in Dvořák that English speakers can barely pronounce. Romanian tucks a comma beneath (r̦), and Old Norse scholarship keeps the letter ȓ alive. This page collects every accented r recognized by the Unicode Standard — 22 characters in total (10 lowercase, 12 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 r on the keyboard
Two dependable methods, demonstrated with ŕ (r with acute) — both tested on Windows 11 and Microsoft 365.
Method 1 — Numeric keypad ALT code
WindowsType ŕ into any Windows program using its ALT code, Alt + 341. You need a working numeric keypad with Num Lock on.
- 1Click exactly where you want the accented r 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 341 on the numeric keypad.
- 5Release Alt — ŕ 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 ŕ it is U+0155. 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 0155 using your regular keyboard.
- 3Without pressing space, hit Alt + X together.
- 4Word swaps the code for the letter — 0155 becomes ŕinstantly.
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.

Accented R — questions people ask
The Windows ALT code for ŕ (Latin Small Letter R with Acute) is Alt + 341. Hold Alt, type 3, 4, 1 on the numeric keypad and release Alt. Inside Word you can type 0155 followed by Alt + X instead — or simply click the character on this page to copy it.
On Windows use Alt + 340 with the numeric keypad; in Microsoft Word type 0154 then press Alt + X. On a Mac, press the matching Option-key accent, release, then type Shift + R. Copy-and-paste from the grid above works in every program.
Hold the Option key together with the accent key, release, then press r. Option + E applies an acute accent, Option + ` a grave, Option + I a circumflex, Option + N a tilde and Option + U an umlaut. Alternatively press and hold the r key and a pop-up menu lists every variation.
Characters beyond the first 256 code points need full Unicode support. When a long ALT code shows a placeholder symbol, redo the steps inside Word — it resolves the complete range — or copy the letter directly from this page, which works in every modern application.
