About this character

U+1F04 (ἄ) is GREEK SMALL LETTER ALPHA WITH PSILI AND OXIA, a lowercase letter in the Greek Extended block. It belongs to the Greek script. It was added in Unicode 1.1 (1993).

Its uppercase form is U+1F0C Ἄ.

It is precomposed. Under NFD it decomposes into U+03B1 α + U+0313 ◌̓ + U+0301 ◌́, and NFC recombines that sequence into this single codepoint, so both spellings are canonically equivalent and should compare equal after normalization. See the normalization guide.
