A double acute is a diacritical mark used to indicate a particular pronunciation of a letter and is mainly used in Hungarian . Here the double acute in Ő (Ő) , ő (ő) and Ű (Ű) , ű denotes (ű) a longer pronunciation compared to the short vowels Ö, ö and Ü, ü . In Hungarian, the length of the vowel is phonologically distinctive, i.e. differentiating in meaning.
In the International Phonetic Alphabet and the spelling of small languages derived from it, the double acute characterizes the particularly high- pitched speech tone .
