Í, í (i-acute) is a letter in the Faroese, Hungarian, Icelandic, Karakalpak, Dobrujan Tatar, Czech, and Slovak languages, where it often indicates a long /i/ vowel (ee in English word feel). This form also appears in Catalan, Irish, Italian, Occitan, Portuguese, Spanish, Aragonese, Galician, Leonese, Navajo, and Vietnamese language as a variant of the letter "i". In Latin, the long i is used instead of for a long i-vowel.[1]
