To get two dots over a "U" on a Mac, hold down the Option key and then press the U key. This will create the umlaut (¨) symbol. Next, release both keys and type the letter "U" to produce "Ü." Alternatively, you can use the Character Viewer by pressing Control + Command + Space, searching for "Umlaut," and selecting "Ü" from the list.

To type "ä" (a with two dots above it), you can use various methods depending on your device. On Windows, you can hold the "Alt" key and type "0228" on the numeric keypad. On a Mac, press "Option" + "u" followed by "a." On a smartphone, long-press the letter "a" and select "ä" from the options that appear.

The dots over i and j are called tittles. This is what wikipedia says:The tittle first appeared in Latin manuscripts in the 11th century, to distinguish the letter i from strokes of nearby letters. Although originally a larger mark, it was reduced to a dot when Roman-style typefaces were introduced.The 'u' or 'j' with two dots over are used in some languages,hungarian, Portuguese, to represent a different vowel sound to the English sound.I think they represent a vowel that is more 'fronted' than the English vowel.
its 2 over 4 because when u reduce 2 over 4 u get 1 over 2
