Same text, other wave looks

• Tilde on every letter 27 characterss̃m̃õõt̃h̃ s̃ãĩl̃ĩñg̃U+0303 Combining tilde after every letter. On n, a and o it is the same mark that makes ñ, ã and õ, and a form that tidies text may fuse the pair into that one letter.
• Tilde on every other letter 21 characterss̃mõot̃h s̃aĩlĩng̃U+0303 Combining tilde on the first, third, fifth letter and so on. Spaces are not counted, so the rhythm carries across words.
• Rolling tilde over each word 25 characterss͠m͠o͠o͠t͠h s͠a͠i͠l͠i͠n͠gU+0360 Combining double tilde between the letters of each word. One mark spans two letters, so neighbours overlap into a single rolling line that stops at the end of the word.
• Two tildes stacked 40 characterss̃̃m̃̃õ̃õ̃t̃̃h̃̃ s̃̃ã̃ĩ̃l̃̃ĩ̃ñ̃g̃̃U+0303 Combining tilde twice on every letter. How far apart the two sit is up to the font.
• Double ripple above 27 characterss͌m͌o͌o͌t͌h͌ s͌a͌i͌l͌i͌n͌g͌U+034C Combining almost equal to above on every letter: two small tildes, one over the other, drawn as a single mark. The names list gives its use in the IPA as velopharyngeal friction.
• Ripple with a dot 27 characterss͋m͋o͋o͋t͋h͋ s͋a͋i͋l͋i͋n͋g͋U+034B Combining homothetic above on every letter, a tilde with a dot on each side of it. Both this mark and the double ripple arrived in Unicode 3.0 (September 1999).
• Zigzag above 27 characterss͛m͛o͛o͛t͛h͛ s͛a͛i͛l͛i͛n͛g͛U+035B Combining zigzag above on every letter, a sharp wave. The names list gives its uses as Latin abbreviation, Lithuanian phonetics and medievalist transcriptions.
• Upright tildes 27 characterss̾m̾o̾o̾t̾h̾ s̾a̾i̾l̾i̾n̾g̾U+033E Combining vertical tilde on every letter: a tilde stood on end, like rising steam. The names list gives it the second name yerik, a Cyrillic sign.
• Tilde under every other letter 21 characterss̰mo̰ot̰h s̰aḭlḭng̰U+0330 Combining tilde below under the first, third, fifth letter and so on. Under every letter it is the wavy underline, which has its own page.
• Wiggly line below 27 characterss᪶m᪶o᪶o᪶t᪶h᪶ s᪶a᪶i᪶l᪶i᪶n᪶g᪶U+1AB6 Combining wiggly line below under every letter, from a run of marks the names list heads Used in German dialectology. It arrived in Unicode 7.0 (June 2014), so an older device may show a box.
• Zigzag below 27 characterss᷏m᷏o᷏o᷏t᷏h᷏ s᷏a᷏i᷏l᷏i᷏n᷏g᷏U+1DCF Combining zigzag below under every letter, one of the Medievalist additions of Unicode 5.1 (April 2008).
• Snake below 27 characterss᷂m᷂o᷂o᷂t᷂h᷂ s᷂a᷂i᷂l᷂i᷂n᷂g᷂U+1DC2 Combining snake below under every letter, a longer and flatter curve than the tilde. It arrived in Unicode 4.1 (March 2005).
• Seagulls below 27 characterss̼m̼o̼o̼t̼h̼ s̼a̼i̼l̼i̼n̼g̼U+033C Combining seagull below under every letter: two shallow arcs, the way a child draws a bird or a wave crest. In the IPA it marks a linguolabial sound.
• Double ripple below 27 characterss᷽m᷽o᷽o᷽t᷽h᷽ s᷽a᷽i᷽l᷽i᷽n᷽g᷽U+1DFD Combining almost equal to below under every letter. The names list says it marks a strident vowel in Khoisan languages. It arrived in Unicode 5.2 (October 2009).
• Tilde above and below 40 characterss̰̃m̰̃õ̰õ̰t̰̃h̰̃ s̰̃ã̰ḭ̃l̰̃ḭ̃ñ̰g̰̃U+0303 Combining tilde and U+0330 Combining tilde below on every letter, so the word runs between two wavy lines.
• Tilde through every other letter 21 characterss̴mo̴ot̴h s̴ai̴li̴ng̴U+0334 Combining tilde overlay through the first, third, fifth letter and so on, which keeps the word easier to read than a tilde through every letter.
• Three tildes 53 characterss̴̰̃m̴̰̃õ̴̰õ̴̰t̴̰̃h̴̰̃ s̴̰̃ã̴̰ḭ̴̃l̴̰̃ḭ̴̃ñ̴̰g̴̰̃U+0334 Combining tilde overlay, U+0303 Combining tilde and U+0330 Combining tilde below on every letter: a wave over, through and under. Three marks a letter, so every letter counts as four characters where a form counts them.
• Zigzag above and below 40 characterss᷏͛m᷏͛o᷏͛o᷏͛t᷏͛h᷏͛ s᷏͛a᷏͛i᷏͛l᷏͛i᷏͛n᷏͛g᷏͛U+035B Combining zigzag above and U+1DCF Combining zigzag below on every letter.
• Tilde on first and last letters 22 characterss̰̃mooth̰̃ s̰̃ailing̰̃U+0303 Combining tilde and U+0330 Combining tilde below on the first and last letter of each word only. The middle of the word stays clean.
• Swell above 42 characterss͌̃̃͌m͌̃̃õot̃h͌̃͌ s͌̃̃͌a͌̃͌ĩli͌ñ͌͌g̃͌͌̃A pile of U+0303 Combining tilde and U+034C Combining almost equal to above that rises and falls once every six letters: 4 marks, 3, 1, none, 1, 3. Which of the two marks lands where is drawn afresh on each shuffle.
• Swell below 42 characterss᷽̰᷽̰m᷽̰᷽o̰ot̰h̰᷽̰ s᷽̰̰᷽a̰᷽̰ḭlḭn᷽̰̰g᷽̰᷽̰The same six-letter swell hung under the line, from U+0330 Combining tilde below and U+1DFD Combining almost equal to below.
• Swell on both sides 56 characterss᷽̰᷽͌̃͌m̰᷽̃͌õ᷽ot̰̃h̰᷽͌̃ s̰᷽̰̃͌͌ã᷽̰͌ḭ̃lḭ̃n̰᷽͌̃g̰᷽̰̃͌̃The swell above and the swell below at once, so the line bulges and narrows every six letters. Up to 6 marks a letter.
• Rising tide 47 characterssmo͌õt͌̃h͌̃ s̃͌̃ã͌̃i͌̃͌l͌̃͌̃ĩ͌̃͌ñ͌̃͌͌g͌̃̃͌͌Nothing on the first letter and 5 marks on the last, from U+0303 Combining tilde and U+034C Combining almost equal to above. The pile grows evenly along the whole text.
• Ebbing tide 47 characterss̃͌̃͌͌m̃͌̃͌̃õ͌̃͌õ͌̃͌t͌̃͌h̃͌̃ s͌̃̃ã͌i͌̃l͌i͌ngThe rising tide turned round: 5 marks on the first letter and nothing on the last.
• Choppy water 27 characterss̑m̑ȏŏt̆h̆ s̆ăĭl̑ȋn̑ğOne mark on every letter, either U+0306 Combining breve, a cup, or U+0311 Combining inverted breve, a cap. Cups and caps in a row read as small waves, and each shuffle deals them again.
• Choppy water below 27 characterss̮m̮o̮o̮t̯h̯ s̯a̯i̯l̯i̮n̯g̮One mark under every letter, either U+032E Combining breve below or U+032F Combining inverted breve below.
