Trema
Umlaut (diacritic)
The umlaut mark (or simply umlaut) and the diaeresis mark (or simply diaeresis) or trema are two
diacritics consisting of a pair of dots placed over a letter. When the vowel is an i, the diacritic replaces the
tittle. The two diacritics are very similar in appearance, and the distinction between them is not always made.
