The '''Basic Latin''' unicode block (full name: '''C0 Controls and Basic Latin''') is the first block of the [[Unicode]] standard, and the only block which is encoded in one byte in [[UTF-8]]. The block contains all the letters and [[ASCII control character|control codes]] of the [[ASCII]] encoding, which is a [[United States]] national variant of [[ISO/IEC 646]].
The letter U+005C (\) may show up as a Yen or Won sign in Japanese/Korean fonts for compatibility reasons with legacy character sets which replaced the backslash with these signs.<ref>[http://blogs.msdn.com/michkap/archive/2005/09/17/469941.aspx Sorting it all Out : When is a backslash not a backslash?]</ref>
