Trema (Trema) is a genus of about 15 species of evergreen trees closely related to the hackberries (Celtis), occurring in subtropical and tropical regions of southern Asia, northern Australasia, Africa and South and Central America. They are generally small trees, reaching 10-20 m tall.
Previously included either in the elm family Ulmaceae or with Celtis in the Celtidaceae, genetic analysis by the APG has shown they are best placed in the hemp family Cannabaceae.
The leaves are alternate, simple, 7-15 cm long, ovate-acuminate to lanceolate with a long pointed tip, and evenly serrated margins. The fruit is a small drupe 3-5 mm diameter.
Trema species are sometimes used as food plants by the larvae of hepialid moths of the genera Aenetus, including A. splendens, which burrow horizontally into the trunk then vertically down, and Endoclita, including E. malabaricus.
Trema orientalis is widely planted for land reclamation in southern Asia, valued for its tolerance of poor soils. It is also an invasive species on some Pacific Ocean islands.

Its the 2 dots that you put over a letter, it means that the vowel should be pronounced separately from the letter which precedes it.
ha ha, loving the guys above cutting and pasting wikipedia with no knowledge of what is actually being asked.
Look up tremor on the net. Sort of convulsions and shakes. Lots of reasons. Some not to worry,others more serious. Your doctor can determine the reason and treatment if necessary.Forget all I said I was wrong. Trema and diaresis are marks used in some languages to emphasise which way a vowel should be pronounced when spoken.Also known as an umlaut.It is a diacritic, It is only very rarely used in English, but is much more common in Spanish,,Portugese and French.
The umlaut mark (or simply umlaut) and the trema or diaeresis mark (or simply diaeresis) are two diacritics consisting of a pair of dots placed over a letter. When the vowel is an i, the diacritic replaces the tittle. The two diacritics are very similar in appearance, and the distinction between them is not always made.
The trema or diaeresis is the diacritic mark ( ¨ ), used to indicate diaeresis, or, more generally, that a vowel should be pronounced apart from the letter which precedes it. For example, in the spelling coöperate, it reminds the reader that the word has four syllables [ko.opəreɪt], not three [ku:pəreɪt]. In English, the trema is rare, and not mandatory, but other languages like Dutch, Spanish, and French make regular use of it. By extension, the words trema and diaeresis also designate the same diacritic when used to denote other kinds of sound changes, such as marking the schwa ë in Albanian.
The umlaut is a similar-looking diacritic ( ¨ ) which indicates the phonological phenomenon of umlaut in German. The umlauted vowels are ä, ö, and ü. The same name is used in other languages which have borrowed these symbols from German.
A pair of dots placed over a letter. They modify the pronunciation of the letter in certain languages such as German or French.
Trema is also a discarded part in trema removing fractal algorithms. But your question applies to the first. Check out the link in source for more details.
You've already had some good definition answers (and some pretty funny ones, too!), so I'll just add a couple of examples.
Two French words commonly used in English illustrate the function of the trema/diaeresis: 'Noel' (2 dots should be over the 'e' in that word, indicating a pronunciation of 'no-ell' rather than 'nole') and 'naive' (2 dots over the 'i' make it 'nah-eeve' rather than 'nave').
Hope this helps!
As evrybody says look up wikipedia!
diaeresis is the Greek for 'divide' and is used in ancient greek and latin poetry to seperate two consecutive vowel sounds.
It is two dots over the second vowel to show it must be pronounced as well as the first one next to it.
