| Usage | Language | Letters | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Creaky voice | Vietnamese | Ạạ /a̰ːʔ˨˩/, Ặặ /a̰ʔ˨˩/, Ậậ /ə̰ʔ˨˩/, Ẹẹ /ɛ̰ʔ˨˩/, Ệệ /ḛʔ˨˩/, Ịị /ḭʔ˨˩/, Ọọ /ɔ̰ʔ˨˩/, Ộộ /o̰ʔ˨˩/, Ợợ /ə̰ːʔ˨˩/, Ụụ /ṵʔ˨˩/, Ựự /ɨ̰ʔ˨˩/, Ỵỵ /ḭʔ˨˩/ | The dot below stands for low falling tone with creaky voice and a following glottal stop.[1] There are many exceptions to the phonemic values of these letters though.[2] |
| Emphatic consonant | Akkadian (DMG-umschrift transliteration) | Ṣṣ /sʼ/, Ṭṭ /tʼ/ | Because Akkadian is an extinct language, the exact pronunciation can't be known for sure;[3] so the phonemic representation here might not be entirely accurate. |
| Ancient Egyptian (traditional transliteration) | Ḥḥ /ħ/, Ḳḳ /qʼ/ | The pronunciation of Ancient Egyptian changed much during the millennia it was spoken, and the exact pronunciation can't be known for sure,[4] therefore the phonemic representation here might not be entirely accurate. Qq may be used as an alternative to Ḳḳ.[5] | |
| Lowered vowel with retracted tongue root | Yoruba (Crowther's alphabet) | Ẹẹ /ɛ̙/, Ọọ /ɔ̙/ | These letters were used in older forms of Yoruba orthography. See Vertical Line Below. |
| Raised vowel | Slovene (orthography with tonal accentuation) | Ẹẹ /e/, Ẹ́ẹ́ /éː/, Ẹ̀ẹ̀ /é/, Ẹ̏ẹ̏ /è/, Ẹ̑ẹ̑ or Ệệ /èː/, Ọọ /o/, Ọ́ọ́ /óː/, Ọ̀ọ̀ /ó/, Ọ̏ọ̏ /ò/, Ọ̑ọ̑ or Ộộ /òː/ | These letters are not used in the standard orthography of Slovene, but in language materials.[6] |
| Syllabic consonant | Heiltsuk-Oowekyala (Heiltsuk dialect, official orthography and Rath's orthography) | Ṃṃ /m̩/, Ṃ́ṃ́ /ḿ̩/, Ṃ̓ṃ̓ /m̩ˀ/, Ṇṇ /n̩/, Ṇ́ṇ́ /ń̩/, Ṇ̓ṇ̓ /n̩ˀ/, Ḷḷ /l̩/, Ḷ́ḷ́ /ĺ̩/, Ḷ̓ḷ̓ /l̩ˀ/ | |
| Other | ISO 15919 romanization of Indic scripts | Ṇṇ /ɳ/ | Ṇṇ is used for transcribing the Indic diacritic anusvāra before retroflex consonants.[7] |

| Usage | Language | Creator | Letters | Notes |

| Absence of pitch accent | Inng (external transcription) | Qwynegold | Ạạ /a/, Ẹẹ /ə, i/, Ịị /i/, Ḷḷ /l̩/ Ṃṃ /ŋ̍/, Ṇṇ /ŋ̍/, Ọọ /o, ə, a/, Ụụ /u/ | The dot below here marks that the syllable is without accent, and that the actual tone of the syllable may end at varying heights depending on the environment. (See also Breve for another marking of accentless syllables in Inng.) Some of these accented letters only appear as part of a digraph when representing a certain sound.[8] |
