About the Accent Remover

This accent remover runs entirely in your browser. It strips diacritical marks from accented characters, converting them to their plain ASCII equivalents. For example, café becomes cafe, naïve becomes naive, and Müller becomes Miller. Useful for cleaning up international text for systems that only accept ASCII, generating URL slugs, or simplifying text for search indexing. Nothing is uploaded — the conversion happens instantly with JavaScript on your device.

How it works

Unicode normalization — The text is normalized to the NFD (Canonical Decomposition) form, which separates base characters from their combining diacritical marks.
Combining mark removal — All characters in the Unicode "Combining Diacritical Marks" block (U+0300 to U+036F) are stripped out, leaving only the base characters.
Special handling — Some characters that don't decompose cleanly (like Æ, Ø, ß) are mapped to their closest ASCII equivalents.

Common conversions

Accented vowels: é→e, è→e, ê→e, ë→e, á→a, à→a, â→a, í→i, ó→o, ú→u, ý→y
Tildes and cedillas: ñ→n, ã→a, õ→o, ç→c
Umlauts: ü→u, ö→o, ä→a, ë→e, ï→i
Nordic and German: æ→ae, ø→o, å→a, ß→ss

Frequently asked questions

Does this tool upload my text? No. All conversion happens locally in your browser. Your text never leaves your device.

Does it work with all languages? It works with any text that uses combining diacritical marks in the Unicode standard. Most Latin-based scripts are fully supported.

What about non-Latin scripts? Cyrillic, Greek, and other non-Latin scripts with diacritics are also handled. However, scripts like Chinese, Japanese, and Korean are not affected since they don't use diacritical marks in the same way.

Are ligatures converted? Yes. Common ligatures like æ, ß, and ﬁ are converted to their expanded ASCII equivalents (ae, ss, fi).
