====Slavic==== :* [[Gaj's Latin alphabet]], used in [[Croatian language|Croatian]] and latinized [[Serbian language|Serbian]], has the symbols {{angbr|[[č]]}}, {{angbr|[[ć]]}}, {{angbr|[[đ]]}}, {{angbr|[[š]]}} and {{angbr|[[ž]]}}, which are considered separate letters and are listed as such in dictionaries and other contexts in which words are listed according to alphabetical order. It also has one [[digraph (orthography)|digraph]] including a diacritic, ''[[dž]]'', which is also alphabetized independently, and follows {{angbr|[[d]]}} and precedes {{angbr|[[đ]]}} in the alphabetical order. :* The [[Czech alphabet]] uses the acute (lowercase [[á]] [[é]] [[í]] [[ó]] [[ú]] [[ý]], uppercase [[Á]] [[É]] [[Í]] [[Ó]] [[Ú]] [[Ý]]), caron (lowercase [[č]] [[ď]] [[ě]] [[ň]] [[ř]] [[š]] [[ť]] [[ž]], uppercase [[Č]] [[Ď]] [[Ě]] [[Ň]] [[Ř]] [[Š]] [[Ť]] [[Ž]]), and for one letter (lowercase [[ů]], uppercase [[Ů]]) the ring. (In ď and ť the caron is modified to look rather like an apostrophe.) Letter with caron are considered separate letters, whereas vowels are considered only as longer variants of the unaccented letters. Acute does not affect alphabetical order, letters with caron are ordered after original counterparts. :* [[Polish alphabet|Polish]] has the following letters: [[ą]] [[ć]] [[ę]] [[ł]] [[ń]] [[ó]] [[ś]] [[ź]] [[ż]]. These are considered to be separate letters: each of them is placed in the alphabet immediately after its Latin counterpart (e.g. {{angbr|ą}} between {{angbr|a}} and {{angbr|b}}), {{angbr|ź}} and {{angbr|ż}} are placed after {{angbr|z}} in that order. :* The [[Serbian Cyrillic alphabet|Serbian Cyrillic]] alphabet has no diacritics, instead it has a grapheme ([[glyph]]) for every letter of [[Gaj's Latin alphabet|its Latin counterpart]] (including Latin letters with diacritics and the digraphs dž, ''[[Lje|lj]]'' and ''[[Nj (digraph)|nj]]''). :* The [[Slovak alphabet]] uses the acute (lowercase [[á]] [[é]] [[í]] [[ó]] [[ú]] [[ý]] [[ĺ]] [[ŕ]], uppercase [[Á]] [[É]] [[Í]] [[Ó]] [[Ú]] [[Ý]] [[Ĺ]] [[Ŕ]]), caron (lowercase [[č]] [[ď]] [[ľ]] [[ň]] [[š]] [[ť]] [[ž]] [[dž]], uppercase [[Č]] [[Ď]] [[Ľ]] [[Ň]] [[Š]] [[Ť]] [[Ž]] [[DŽ]]), umlaut ([[ä]] [[Ä]]) and circumflex accent ([[ô]] [[Ô]]). All of those are considered separate letters and are placed directly after the original counterpart in the [[Slovak alphabet|alphabet]].<ref name="PSP2000">http://www.juls.savba.sk/ediela/psp2000/psp.pdf page 12, section I.2</ref> :* The basic [[Slovenian alphabet]] has the symbols {{angbr|[[č]]}}, {{angbr|[[š]]}}, and {{angbr|[[ž]]}}, which are considered separate letters and are listed as such in dictionaries and other contexts in which words are listed according to alphabetical order. Letters with a [[caron]] are placed right after the letters as written without the diacritic. The letter {{angbr|đ}} ('d with bar') may be used in non-transliterated foreign words, particularly names, and is placed after {{angbr|č}} and before {{angbr|d}}.
