þm

ím is a two-character sequence consisting of the Latin lowercase i with acute (í) followed by the letter m. It is not a single letter or a standardized digraph in any major alphabet, and it has no universal meaning or pronunciation beyond the word and language in which it appears. In languages that use í, the acute accent marks a distinction such as stress or vowel quality, but the following m is simply the consonant m; thus ím does not by itself represent a fixed morpheme or sound.

Because í is a separate character from m, ím occurs only as part of larger words, personal names, or borrowed terms rather than as an independently meaningful unit. Its occurrence is therefore highly context-dependent and varies with orthographic rules of specific languages, such as Spanish, Icelandic, Hungarian, and others that utilize í, rather than forming a distinct symbol with a global pronunciation.

In computing and typography, ím is represented with two code points: U+00ED for í and U+006D for m. In UTF-8, that sequence encodes as the bytes C3 AD 6D. There is no single precomposed character for the sequence, and normalization remains two code points (NFC and NFD both preserve the two-element form).
