In terms of the phonetic symbol, how can I write the symbol t̬ , a "t" with an upside down "^" under it?

So $\hat x$ and $\widehat x$ give upper hats of different length, however, unlike \overbrace{} had an \underbrace{}, one sometimes needs an \uhat and \uwidehat.     What is the best (cleanest, fewest conflicts with possible usage, e.g, as interval endpoints in a definite integral, ie, scale properly) to get a underhat and underwide hat (same hats, but flipped, and below the symbol in question).   I suppose one can use  \documentclass{article}\usepackage{amsmath,mathtools,amssymb} \newcommand*{\uhat}{\underset{\mathrel{\text{\raisebox{.25ex}{\rotatebox[origin=c]{180}{$\wedge$}}}}}} \newcommand*{\uwidehat}{\underset{\mathrel{\text{\raisebox{.25ex}{\rotatebox[origin=c]{180}{$\widehat{~}$}}}}}} \begin{document} $\uhat x ~ ~ \uwidehat X$ \end{document}   But there must be better ways.

Is there a command like \bar{...} but such that the bar is placed below the symbol?   Of course there is \underline{...} but then the line is adapted to the width of the symbol and I don't want that (compare with the difference between \overline{...} and \bar{...}).    I need this for math mode.

I'm using TeX with the plain format.  On my keyboard there is the 'è' character (as well as é, ò, à, ù, ì).  I'd like to make it work so that, when put è in the input file, TeX transforms it into \`e, i.e. the letter e with an accent.  I think I have to change the character code of è and do something like that, but I don't know what to do exactly.  Can you help me?

I would like to insert the below mathematical symbol, it looks like a big Delta but different. Is there command to obtain a similar shape?

Originally my keyboard is QWERTY , and greater than (>) and less than (&lt;) symbols work well, but when I switch my language from english to french ( AZERTY) . I don't know where is the location of those keys. I will be thankful for your help. Regards!

I'm wondering about the best way to do an explicit space character (I don't even know what it's properly called), like the ones you get in the \begin{verbatim*} environment. The closest I've found is  \sqcup   in math mode, but it seems like a bit of a hack to me. Is there any text symbol for what I'm looking for?

I would like to reproduce the following text    but I couldn't find the house symbol neither through Detexify nor by looking through the . I also tried combining vertical bars and overline like  \left\lvert\overline{ \alpha }\rvert\right \overline{\left\lvert \alpha \rvert\right}   to less than desirable results.

I found , which explains orthogonal and not orthogonal symbols.  I was able quickly to find the orthogonal symbols as \perp, \upvdash etc., but not able to find a top line which strikes the sign from the top left to bottom right. One idea is to combine to symbols e.g., use one of the aboves and add the line in top of it. However I don't know how to do it.

The title really says it all, but when I use the @ character to ignore escapes in a string literal @"Like This\", the \" is interpreted as a quote character belonging to the string rather than the terminating quote.

Ok, see the word "conscious" has the IPA /ˈkɑːnʃəs/ in the   However, when you listen clearly, you will feel like it should be /ˈkɑːntʃəs/ not /ˈkɑːnʃəs/.  So it should read /tʃ/ rather than /ʃ/.  In some other dictionaries, which use different transcription systems, they give the entry "ˈkän(t)-shəs" , for example in the . Here we see it with a /t/.  So, should the IPA for the word "conscious" be /ˈkɑːnʃəs/ or /ˈkɑːntʃəs/?

The title pretty much says it all: how can I type Unicode characters - specifically the em-dash —?

I use LaTeX to take quick notes about my programming work.  I have a couple of frustrations:    I need to use underscore a lot because of variables named with underscores.  However, I have to escape each one of them "\_", thus making my notes less readable on the markup side. I commonly want to use "&lt;" and "&gt;" symbols - why oh why are the default representations of these symbols "¿" and "¡"?   Is there anyway I can alter LaTeX so that "_", "&lt;", and ">" literally typeset as "_", "&lt;", and ">"?

I saw two less than signs on this Wikipedia article and I was wonder what they meant mathematically.    EDIT: It looks like this can use TeX commands. So I think this is the symbol: $\ll$

Many command-line tools (grep, flex, etc.) use the ^ symbol to denote "beginning of line" and the $ symbol to denote "end of line." When did this convention arise? It seems perfectly reasonable to reserve two characters for these purposes, but it's a bit odd that on modern keyboards the $ symbol is to the left of the ^ symbol.  Is this a completely arbitrary decision? Does this come from some older keyboard layout? Is this convention used because some older tool decided to do things this way?  Regardless of the answer, are there primary sources that document this?

could anyone please tell me how I can write "ℰ" in latex in both text and math enviroment? I have already tried $\mathscr{E}$ and $\mathcal{E}$, but none of those are satisfying.   What I want to have is     but not any of these

In math, one often needs to put a letter inside the symbols &lt;&gt;, e.g. to denote a cyclic group &lt;x&gt; generated by some element x. However, plain text displays the symbols &lt; and &gt; as an upside down exclamation point and an upside down question mark, respectively, while math type displays a large space like so:  &lt; x &gt;    Is there some way to reduce this spacing?
