UNHATTED

Etymology

Adjective

unhatted (not comparable)

Not wearing a hat; hatless.

(typography) Written without a circumflex ('^').

Usage notes

The use of unhatted to refer to a character that lacks a circumflex is most commonly used in mathematical texts that have related variables with and without the circumflex. Thus, given the variables a and รข, these would be referred to as unhatted and hatted instances of the variable a.
