- háček
- (in the Czech alphabet, as well as in other Latin alphabets and systems of Cyrillic Romanisation derived from it) generally marking palatalisation
- (historically; i.e., in Old Czech) marking palatalisation when written atop a consonant; marking palatalisation of the preceding consonant when written atop ě
- (currently; i.e., in Modern Czech) marking partial palatalisation in the case of the postalveolar consonants, full palatalisation in the case of the palatal consonants, and — when written atop ě (arising from the historical confusion of the now-obsolete yat: Ѣ, which Ě transcribes, with the iotified A: Ꙗ) — variously, palatalisation of the preceding consonant, iotation, or idiosyncratically mě = /mɲɛ/
- (in the Romanisation of tonal languages, employed on account of the diacritic’s shape):
- indicating the dipping third tone in pinyin
- indicating a rising tone in the transliteration of Thai, in the International Phonetic Alphabet, and in the African reference alphabet

Usage notes
Letters with háček are considered as separate letters with different names, and listed in the alphabet after the same letters without macron (i.e., č after c, š after s, and ž after z), and also in alphabetized lists (e.g., in dictionaries), like letters with cedilla (ģ, ķ, ļ, ņ), and unlike letters with macrons (ā, ē, ī, ū), which are treated, for alphabetizing purposes, as the same as letters without macrons.
