Usage in various languages
Chinese
In Chinese pinyin, ò is the yángqù tone (阳去, falling tone) of "o".
Emilian
Ò is used to represent Emilian pronunciation: [ɔː], e.g. òs Emilian pronunciation: [ɔːs] "bone".
Italian
In Italian, the grave accent is used over any vowel to indicate word-final stress: Niccolò (equivalent of Nicholas and the forename of Machiavelli).
It can also be used on the nonfinal vowels o and e to indicate that the vowel is stressed and that it is open: còrso, "Corsican", vs. córso, "course"/"run", the past participle of "correre". Ò represents the open-mid back rounded vowel /ɔ/ and È represents the open-mid front unrounded vowel /ɛ/.
Kashubian
Ò is the 28th letter of the Kashubian alphabet and represents /wɛ/.
Macedonian
In Macedonian, о̀ is used to differentiate the word о̀д (Template:Lang-en) from the more common од (Template:Lang-en). Both о̀ and о are pronounced as [o].
Norwegian
Ò can be found in the Norwegian word òg which is an alternative spelling of også, meaning "also". This word is found in both Nynorsk and Bokmål.
Romagnol
Ò is used to represent Romagnol pronunciation: [ɔ], e.g. piò Romagnol pronunciation: [pjɔ] "more".
Vietnamese
In the Vietnamese alphabet, ò is the huyền tone (falling tone) of "o".
Welsh
In Welsh, ò is sometimes used, usually in words borrowed from another language, to mark vowels that are short when a long vowel would normally be expected, e.g., clòs (Template:Lang-en).
