More about Remove accents from text
When plain text without accents helps
File names that travel between systems, usernames, text messages abroad, older databases and any field that only accepts ASCII. Strip the accents and the text survives the journey without turning into question marks or mojibake.
How the conversion works
Each letter is decomposed into its base letter and its accent, and the accent is thrown away: “é” becomes “e”, “ů” becomes “u”, “ñ” becomes “n”. Letters that are not a base letter with a mark, like “ß” or “ø”, are mapped by hand so nothing is lost. Punctuation, digits and line breaks stay as they are.
Frequently asked questions
Do the paragraphs change?
No. Line breaks, blank lines and spacing all survive; only the letters change.
Can I tell whether the text had accents at all?
Compare the two panels: if the result is identical to the input, there was nothing to strip.
Can the accents be put back?
Not automatically. Once stripped, the information is gone and no tool can reliably tell which “e” was meant to be “é”. Keep the original.
Is the text sent anywhere?
No. Everything runs in your browser and nothing is stored.
