Remove combining accents
Create a text copy with Unicode combining marks removed.
A clear answer. Here’s how.
Normalises to Unicode NFD, removes combining-mark code points and returns NFC text. This changes accented letters such as é to e. It is not transliteration: letters such as ø and ß are not converted, and marks in other writing systems may be meaningful.
