Remove Accents and Diacritics From Text

It strips diacritical marks such as acute, grave, umlaut and tilde, and maps special letters to their closest ASCII equivalent, so accented words become plain unaccented text you can use anywhere.

Letters that Unicode does not split into a base plus a mark are transliterated by an explicit map. The sharp s becomes ss, the ae and oe ligatures expand, thorn becomes th, eth becomes d, and stroked letters like o-slash and l-stroke become o and l.

No. Only accented and special letters change. Spaces, punctuation, digits, plain ASCII and emoji all pass through exactly as you entered them, so structure and symbols stay intact.

The text is normalised with Unicode NFD, which decomposes an accented letter into a base letter plus a combining mark. The tool then deletes every combining mark in the U+0300 to U+036F range and recombines with NFC, leaving clean base letters.

Yes. Case is kept through the transliteration, so Ä becomes A and ä becomes a. Multi-letter maps follow the source case, so the uppercase AE ligature becomes AE and the lowercase one becomes ae.

Yes. Removing accents first gives you safe ASCII, which you can then lowercase and slugify for clean URLs, filenames and database keys that would otherwise mangle accented bytes.

Only partially. It removes combining marks from any script, but it does not romanise whole alphabets. Greek, Cyrillic, Arabic or Chinese characters that lack a mapping pass through unchanged rather than becoming Latin letters.

No. Whitespace is left exactly as pasted. The tool only touches accented and special letters, so line breaks, tabs and repeated spaces survive untouched.

Yes. Everything runs in your browser and nothing you paste is uploaded, logged or stored.
