How to type D with accent on every device
The letter d only takes an accent in a handful of languages, so keyboards keep these options tucked behind shortcuts. Below is the fastest route on each device, shown with the crossed đ. Every other d with accent follows the same steps.
Windows, ALT code
Num Lock on. Hold Alt, type the number, release. Alt 0273 gives đ (the d with stroke); Alt 0240 gives ð, the eth. The d with accent alt code for every variant is in the table below.
Windows, Word (Alt+X and Ctrl shortcut)
Type the hex, then Alt + X. So 0111 then Alt + X becomes đ. For ď (d-caron), the caron shortcut Ctrl + Shift + , then d works in many builds.
Windows, emoji & symbol panel
No number pad handy? Press Win + ., open the Symbols tab, and click the character.
Mac, Option key
There is no single Option combo for đ, so the quick way is to press and hold the d key until the accent menu appears, then choose your letter.
iPhone & iPad
Press and hold d. The pop-up shows đ and ð, slide to the one you want and release.
Android (Gboard / SwiftKey)
Hold d on the keyboard, then slide onto the variant in the pop-up.
Linux
Ctrl + Shift + U, type 0111, Enter. A Compose key also works: Compose, then d, then – gives đ.
HTML & web
On the web, đ is đ and ð is ð. The technical table lists them all.
Excel & Google Sheets
Use =UNICHAR(273) for đ, or the matching decimal for any other D form.
Typing D with accent on different language keyboards
The crossed d belongs to a small set of languages, and their keyboards are where it feels natural. Croatian, Vietnamese and the Sámi languages are the main ones.
Croatian & Serbian (Latin) keyboards
On a Croatian layout, the d with line đ sits as a dedicated key beside č, ć and š. It is a full letter of the alphabet there, standing for a “j”-like sound, as in đak (pupil).
Vietnamese keyboard
Vietnamese input methods (Telex, VNI) build đ by typing dd. The crossed d is a core Vietnamese letter, seen in đồng (the currency) and đi (to go).
Sámi keyboards
Northern Sámi uses đ for a “th”-style sound, so Sámi layouts give it a dedicated key alongside their other special letters.
Icelandic keyboard (for ð)
For the eth ð, an Icelandic keyboard has a dedicated key. Note that ð (eth) and đ (crossed d) look related but are different letters with different origins.
US-International keyboard (English speakers)
This layout will not make đ directly. For occasional use, the ALT code or the copy grid at the top of the page is the quickest option.
Keyboard shortcuts for D with accent (Microsoft Word)
In Word and most Office apps, hold the combination, release it, then press d (or D for a capital).
| Accent letter | Keyboard shortcut |
|---|---|
| ď, Ď | Ctrl + Shift + , then d or D (caron, where supported) |
| đ (d-stroke) | No default Word shortcut, use the ALT code or copy grid |
| ð (eth) | Ctrl + ' then d, in some builds; otherwise ALT code |
Languages that use D with accent, with examples
Each d with accent belongs to specific languages. Here is what each one means and where it is used.
đ, the d with stroke (crossed d)
Here is the one most people come for. đ, the d with stroke, is a straight-backed d with a bar across the stem, which is exactly why it also gets searched as a d with line through it. It is a full letter in Croatian and Serbian (Latin script), in Vietnamese (đồng, đi), and in the Sámi languages. Linguists also borrow it, and a variant with the bar through the bowl is called a barred d.
ð, eth (a related but separate letter)
Do not mix this one up with đ. The eth, ð, is built on a rounded, uncial d and belongs to Icelandic and Faroese, where it spells a soft “th” as in Óðinn. Dogecoin even uses the capital Ð as its symbol. It looks like a crossed d, but its history is different.
ď, d with caron
ď is Czech and Slovak (ďábel, devil), where the caron softens the d to a “dy” sound.
ḋ, ḍ and the dotted forms
The dot-above ḋ appears in old Irish spelling; the dot-below ḍ shows up in Sanskrit and Semitic transliteration for a retroflex or emphatic d. Both, plus the line-below ḏ, are copyable from the grid above, giving you every accented d in one place.
D with accent , full ALT code list
Every d with accent mark has its own Windows ALT code, so you can look up the exact d with accent alt code below. Hold Alt and type the number on the numeric keypad, then release Alt.

How do you write a lowercase cursive d?
In handwriting, a lowercase cursive d starts on the baseline, loops up and back down, and joins to the next letter with a small exit stroke. Cursive is a handwriting style rather than an accent, so there is no single “correct” printed shape, but here is a script version of the letter you can copy and paste:
How do you write a capital cursive D?
