Ë (upper case,lower caseë)
- the letterE with adiaeresis representing aschwa
- InTagalog and its standardized formFilipino,Ë is used to represent theschwa, particularly in words originating from other Philippine languages, for instanceMaranao (Mëranaw),Pangasinan,Ilocano, andIbaloi. Before introduction of this letter, the schwa was ambiguously represented byA orE.
- Writing the diaeresis is recommended but not required as long as the reader is aware that the unaccented form is supposed to sound like a schwa (/ə/).
- The use of thediaeresis to represent the central vowelschwa is possibly inspired by the use of thediaeresis in theIPA to representcentralization.
