Zirkumflex / Dachzeichen Explanation: I do not know what sort of keyboard you're using. Mine shows the Dachzeichen on top of the "6" key but if you mean ^, you have the translation above. (On the very left, left of the 1, my keyboard shows a ~ which, I believe, is not what you asked). Reference: http://dict.leo.org |

das Caret Explanation: English: caret -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 8 mins (2006-01-30 21:49:23 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- also Zirkumflex, and yes, also Hütchen http://www.soziologie.uni-halle.de/unger/scripts/workshop_in... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 24 mins (2006-01-30 22:05:09 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- also Zirkumflex, and yes, also Hütchen http://www.soziologie.uni-halle.de/unger/scripts/workshop_in... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 32 mins (2006-01-30 22:13:30 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- See also http://www.proz.com/kudoz/782490 If I type the symbol in question and hit space, I get a caret, like this: ^; if I type the symbol and a vowel immediately after it, I get a circumflex: ô Technically two different things, but the terms are often used interchangeably. I fully agree with Klaus that it depends on your context as to whether to use the more formal Caret(zeichen) or the more colloquial Hütchen. |
