How do I remove accentuated characters from a string? Especially in IE6, I had something like this:

accentsTidy = function(s){
    var r=s.toLowerCase();
    r = r.replace(new RegExp(/\s/g),"");
    r = r.replace(new RegExp(/[àáâãäå]/g),"a");
    r = r.replace(new RegExp(/æ/g),"ae");
    r = r.replace(new RegExp(/ç/g),"c");
    r = r.replace(new RegExp(/[èéêë]/g),"e");
    r = r.replace(new RegExp(/[ìíîï]/g),"i");
    r = r.replace(new RegExp(/ñ/g),"n");                
    r = r.replace(new RegExp(/[òóôõö]/g),"o");
    r = r.replace(new RegExp(/œ/g),"oe");
    r = r.replace(new RegExp(/[ùúûü]/g),"u");
    r = r.replace(new RegExp(/[ýÿ]/g),"y");
    r = r.replace(new RegExp(/\W/g),"");
    return r;
};

but IE6 bugs me, seems it doesn't like my regular expression.

• 5 The answers here seem to be ignoring the issue of normalization. For a really robust solution you'd have to look into doing the sorts of things that are carried out by github.com/walling/unorm . – user18015 Commented Dec 24, 2011 at 5:54
• 4 @JonathanFingland Some software doesn't allow special characters in an id slot. (HTML PAGE NAMES for example) This is another reason to want to remove them. Keep the title in it's original form but not have to retype all those characters. – Mallow Commented Feb 14, 2012 at 22:18
• 1 @Mallow your example would be great for validation, but not sanitizing. If the string a user enters has limitations, they need to know that and be asked to re-enter the string with the constraints provided. OP's case is actually just for sorting and not for permanent changes to the data. OP would probably benefit from sorting using the localeCompare() method which will allow you sort the strings according to the locale setting of the browser (same reason to use toLocaleString() when working with dates) – Jonathan Fingland Commented Feb 23, 2012 at 16:47
• 1 @Jonathan : have you tried to use localeCompare ? "ca".localeCompare("ça") gives me -132 in Chrome. The browser's locale will never tell you that "c" is equal to "ç". And that's very well, since it should not. They are indeed different. – glmxndr Commented Feb 26, 2012 at 7:25
• 1 This is very useful for searches too. I'm building a search input box - where you type soccer player names from all over the world and I want autocompletion. Guess what in my language there are no diacritics so it's hard for me to type names like 'López' or 'Óscar' – Pavel Nikolov Commented Jan 16, 2014 at 21:10

Sorted by: Reset to default 1 2 Next 2038

With ES2015/ES6 String.prototype.normalize(),

const str = "Crème Brûlée"
str.normalize("NFD").replace(/[\u0300-\u036f]/g, "")
> "Creme Brulee"

Note: use NFKD if you want things like \uFB01(fi) normalized (to fi).

Two things are happening here:

1. normalize()ing to NFD Unicode normal form decomposes combined graphemes into the combination of simple ones. The è of Crème ends up expressed as e + ̀.
2. Using a regex character class to match the U+0300 → U+036F range, it is now trivial to globally get rid of the diacritics, which the Unicode standard conveniently groups as the Combining Diacritical Marks Unicode block.

As of 2021, one can also use Unicode property escapes:

str.normalize("NFD").replace(/\p{Diacritic}/gu, "")

See comment for performance testing.

Alternatively, if you just want sorting

Intl.Collator has sufficient support ~95% right now, a polyfill is also available here but I haven't tested it.

const c = new Intl.Collator();
["creme brulee", "crème brûlée", "crame brulai", "crome brouillé",
"creme brulay", "creme brulfé", "creme bruléa"].sort(c.compare)
[ 'crame brulai', 'creme brulay', 'creme bruléa', 'creme brulee', 'crème brûlée', 'creme brulfé', 'crome brouillé']


["crème brûlée", "crame brulai", "creme brulee", "crexe brulee", "crome brouillé"].sort()
[ 'crame brulai', 'creme brulee', 'crexe brulee', 'crome brouillé', 'crème brûlée']

["crème brûlée", "crame brulai", "creme brulee", "crexe brulee", "crome brouillé"].sort((a,b) => a.localeCompare(b))
[ 'crame brulai', 'creme brulee', 'crème brûlée', 'crexe brulee', 'crome brouillé']

I slightly modified khel version for one reason: Every regexp parse/replace will cost O(n) operations, where n is number of characters in target text. But, regexp is not exactly what we need. So:

You can use the _.deburr() method from the Lodash library.

It's available as a stand-alone NPM package lodash.deburr, or as part of the lodash package.

const myStringWithAccent = 'Mon café est plein de caféïne';
const myStringWithoutAccent = _.deburr( myStringWithAccent, );

The result will be : "Mon cafe est plein de cafeine"

The format for new RegExp is

RegExp(something, 'modifiers');

So you would want

accentsTidy = function(s){
                        var r=s.toLowerCase();
                        r = r.replace(new RegExp("\\s", 'g'),"");
                        r = r.replace(new RegExp("[àáâãäå]", 'g'),"a");
                        r = r.replace(new RegExp("æ", 'g'),"ae");
                        r = r.replace(new RegExp("ç", 'g'),"c");
                        r = r.replace(new RegExp("[èéêë]", 'g'),"e");
                        r = r.replace(new RegExp("[ìíîï]", 'g'),"i");
                        r = r.replace(new RegExp("ñ", 'g'),"n");                            
                        r = r.replace(new RegExp("[òóôõö]", 'g'),"o");
                        r = r.replace(new RegExp("œ", 'g'),"oe");
                        r = r.replace(new RegExp("[ùúûü]", 'g'),"u");
                        r = r.replace(new RegExp("[ýÿ]", 'g'),"y");
                        r = r.replace(new RegExp("\\W", 'g'),"");
                        return r;
                };

In NPM there is a package for this: latinize

It's a very good package to solve this issue.

Shortened code based on the excellent solution by Ian Elliott:

accentsTidy = function(s){
    var r = s.toLowerCase();
    non_asciis = {'a': '[àáâãäå]', 'ae': 'æ', 'c': 'ç', 'e': '[èéêë]', 'i': '[ìíîï]', 'n': 'ñ', 'o': '[òóôõö]', 'oe': 'œ', 'u': '[ùúûűü]', 'y': '[ýÿ]'};
    for (i in non_asciis) { r = r.replace(new RegExp(non_asciis[i], 'g'), i); }
    return r;
};

Edit: Corrected non-working code

There's a lot out there, but I think this one is simple and good enough:

 function remove_accents(strAccents) {
    var strAccents = strAccents.split('');
    var strAccentsOut = new Array();
    var strAccentsLen = strAccents.length;
    var accents =    "ÀÁÂÃÄÅàáâãäåÒÓÔÕÕÖØòóôõöøÈÉÊËèéêëÇçðÐÌÍÎÏìíîïÙÚÛÜùúûüÑñŠšŸÿýŽž";
    var accentsOut = "AAAAAAaaaaaaOOOOOOOooooooEEEEeeeeCcdDIIIIiiiiUUUUuuuuNnSsYyyZz";
    for (var y = 0; y < strAccentsLen; y++) {
        if (accents.indexOf(strAccents[y]) != -1) {
            strAccentsOut[y] = accentsOut.substr(accents.indexOf(strAccents[y]), 1);
        } else
            strAccentsOut[y] = strAccents[y];
    }
    strAccentsOut = strAccentsOut.join('');

    return strAccentsOut;
}

If you also want to remove special characters and transform spaces and hyphens in underscores, do this:

string = remove_accents(string);
string = string.replace(/[^a-z0-9\s]/gi, '').replace(/[-\s]/g, '_');

One solution that seems to be way faster by the given test : http://jsperf.com/diacritics/9

function removeDiacritics(str) {
   return str.replace(/[^A-Za-z0-9\s]+/g, function(a){
      return diacriticsMap[a] || a; 
   });
}
removeDiacritics(teste);

Working example: http://jsbin.com/sovorute/1/edit

Reasoning: One reason this is much faster is because we only iterate through the special characters, picked by the negated regex pattern. The fastest of the tests (String Iteration without in) iterates 1001 on the given text, which means every character. This one iterates only 35 times and outputs the same result. Keep in mind that this will only replace what is indicated in the map.

Classic article on the subject: http://alistapart.com/article/accent-folding-for-auto-complete

Credit: http://semplicewebsites.com/removing-accents-javascript , also provides a nice character map.

A simpler way to replace the diacriticals.

function replaceDiacritics(str){

  var diacritics = [
    {char: 'A', base: /[\300-\306]/g},
    {char: 'a', base: /[\340-\346]/g},
    {char: 'E', base: /[\310-\313]/g},
    {char: 'e', base: /[\350-\353]/g},
    {char: 'I', base: /[\314-\317]/g},
    {char: 'i', base: /[\354-\357]/g},
    {char: 'O', base: /[\322-\330]/g},
    {char: 'o', base: /[\362-\370]/g},
    {char: 'U', base: /[\331-\334]/g},
    {char: 'u', base: /[\371-\374]/g},
    {char: 'N', base: /[\321]/g},
    {char: 'n', base: /[\361]/g},
    {char: 'C', base: /[\307]/g},
    {char: 'c', base: /[\347]/g}
  ]

  diacritics.forEach(function(letter){
    str = str.replace(letter.base, letter.char);
  });

  return str;
};

I use GitHub Jakub Dundalek's repository Latinize.js.

var latinize = require('latinize');
latinize('ỆᶍǍᶆṔƚÉ áéíóúýčďěňřšťžů'); // => 'ExAmPlE aeiouycdenrstzu'

I have forked billy's code http://jsfiddle.net/billybraga/UHmnf/ (from his post) into this: http://jsfiddle.net/infralabs/dJX58/

I corrected transcription of ſ and ß characters and also added coversion of these ones: Þþ, Ðð, Ŋŋ, IJij, Œœ.

Use

function removeDicretics(str) {
    return str.replace(/[^\u0000-\u007E]/g, function (weirdo) {
        return diacriticsMap[weirdo] || weirdo;
    });
}
// Call
var cleanStr = removeDicretics("bułłśhìt"); // bullshit

Here's my modified version of lehelk.com's version that also removes html entites that are accents :

I still don't know about performance, though...

Here's a very simple solution without too much code using a very simple map of diacritics that includes some or all that map to ascii equivalents containing more than one character, i.e. Æ => AE, ffi => ffi, etc... Also included some very basic functional tests

normalize-diacritics is very useful

const { normalize } = require('normalize-diacritics');
     
// Assuming top-level await is enabled...
await normalize('söme stüff with áccènts'); // 'some stuff with accents'

thanks to all
I use this version and say why (because I misses those explanations at the begining, so I try to help the next reader if he is as dull as me ...)

Remark : I wanted an efficient solution, so :

• only one regexp compilation (if needed)
• only one string scan for each string
• an efficient way to find the translated characters etc ...

My version is :
(there is no new technical trick inside it, only some selected ones + explanations why)

    return function(s) {
        return(s.replace(translate_re, function(match){return translate[match];}) );
    }
})();

and I use it this way :

var without_accents = makeSortString("wïthêüÄTrèsBïgüeAk100t");
// I let you guess the result,
// no I was kidding you : I give you the result : witheuatresbigueak100t

Comments :

• Tthe instruction inside it is done once (after, makeSortString != undefined)
• function(){...} is stored once in makeSortString, so the "big" translate_re and translate objects are stored once
• When you call makeSortString('something') it call directly the inside function which calls only s.replace(...) : it is efficient
• s.replace uses regexp (the special syntax of var translate_re= .... is in fact equivalent to var translate_re = new RegExp("[¹....Z]","g"); but the compilation of the regexp is done once for all, and the scan of the s String is done one for a call of the function (not for every character as it would be in a loop)
• For each character found s.replace calls function(match) where parameter match contains the character found, and it call the corresponding translated character (translate[match])
• Translate[match] is probably efficient too as the javascript translate object is probably implemented by javascript with a hashtab or something equivalent and allow the program to find the translated character almost directly and not for instance through a loop on a array of all characters to find the right one (which would be awfully unefficient).

Assuming you know what you're doing, I suspect IE6 is not interpreting the file's encoding correctly, and hence not recognising the non-ASCII characters in the file:

• Make sure the file is saved as UTF-8 (say)
• Use Fiddler or some other tool to check that the web server is sending the correct Content-Encoding HTTP header.

(It "smells" wrong though, I'd look into doing the sorting, say on the server using something that's locale-aware... but anyway...)

I found all these a little clumsy and I'm not too expert on regular expressions, so here's a simpler version. It would be quite easy to translate it to your favourite server-side language, assuming that the string already in Unicode:

// String containing replacement characters for stripping accents 
var stripstring = 
    'AAAAAAACEEEEIIII'+
    'DNOOOOO.OUUUUY..'+
    'aaaaaaaceeeeiiii'+
    'dnooooo.ouuuuy.y'+
    'AaAaAaCcCcCcCcDd'+
    'DdEeEeEeEeEeGgGg'+
    'GgGgHhHhIiIiIiIi'+
    'IiIiJjKkkLlLlLlL'+
    'lJlNnNnNnnNnOoOo'+
    'OoOoRrRrRrSsSsSs'+
    'SsTtTtTtUuUuUuUu'+
    'UuUuWwYyYZzZzZz.';

function stripaccents(str){
    var answer='';
    for(var i=0;i<str.length;i++){
        var ch=str[i];
        var chindex=ch.charCodeAt(0)-192;   // Index of character code in the strip string
        if(chindex>=0 && chindex<stripstring.length){
            // Character is within our table, so we can strip the accent...
            var outch=stripstring.charAt(chindex);
            // ...unless it was shown as a '.'
            if(outch!='.')ch=outch;
        }
        answer+=ch;
    }
    return answer;
}

Pass a user defined function to the Array.sort() method, and in this user defined function use String.localeCompare()

function myCompareFunction(a, b) {
  return a.localeCompare(b);
}

var values = ["pêches", "épinards", "tomates", "fraises"];

// WRONG: ["fraises", "pêches", "tomates", "épinards"]
values.sort();

 // **GOOD**: ["épinards", "fraises", "pêches", "tomates"]
values.sort(myCompareFunction);

I used string.js's latinise() method, which lets you do it like this:

var output = S(input).latinise().toString();

My take, for removing all accents and special characters. I've mixed Lewis Diamond's elegant accent removal method with the community wiki's fast character replace for the rest of the characters. The result is an Ascii string.

If you're also interesting in converting Greek characters to Latin, I've included the Greek alhpabet along with some digraphs; it can also be used for a form of combined orthographic and phonetic Greeklish.

Also, this version accepts optional options with:

• override Object {replace:string -> search:regex, ...}
  It overrides the default replacements
• ignore Array<string | regex> | string
  Ignores the list items which can be strings or regular expressions

Removing macrons from te reo Māori language For anyone who came here to remove macrons from te reo Māori language. Note: Stackblitz removed the single quotes off the map keys when I formatted the code - they must be confident it is OK. Subset of this code thank you

'use strict';

    var macronMap = {
      ā: 'a',
      ē: 'e',
      ī: 'i',
      ō: 'o',
      ū: 'u',
      Ā: 'A',
      Ē: 'E',
      Ī: 'I',
      Ō: 'O',
      Ū: 'U',
    };

    function deMacron(str) {
      return str.replace(/[^A-Za-z0-9\[\] ]/g, function (char) {
        return macronMap[char] || char;
      });
    }
    function macronFree(str) {
      return str === deMacron(str);
    }

    console.assert(
      'a, e, i, o, u, A, E, I, O, U' === deMacron('ā, ē, ī, ō, ū, Ā, Ē, Ī, Ō, Ū')
    );        
    console.assert(macronFree('a, e, i, o, u, A, E, I, O, U'));       
    console.assert(!macronFree('ā, ē, ī, ō, ū, Ā, Ē, Ī, Ō, Ū'));
    document.body.append(deMacron('ā, ē, ī, ō, ū, Ā, Ē, Ī, Ō, Ū'));

use localCompare https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/String/localeCompare

const a = 'réservé'; // With accents, lowercase
const b = 'RESERVE'; // No accents, uppercase

console.log(a.localeCompare(b));
// Expected output: 1
console.log(a.localeCompare(b, 'en', { sensitivity: 'base' }));
// Expected output: 0

You can create regex's in multiple ways. Using the new RegExp-constructor:

var re = new RegExp("[a-z]", "ig") //(string pattern, string modifiers)

Or using the regex literal notation:

var re = /[a-z]/ig; // /pattern/modifiers

You have mixed the two.
