Editing Digraph (orthography) (section)

==In alphabetization==
In some languages, certain digraphs and [[trigraph (orthography)|trigraph]]s are counted as distinct letters in themselves, and assigned to a specific place in the [[alphabet]], separate from that of the sequence of characters that composes them, for purposes of [[orthography]] and [[collation]]:
*In the [[Gaj's Latin alphabet]] used to write [[Serbo-Croatian]], the digraphs {{vr|[[dž]]}}, {{vr|[[lj (digraph)|lj]]}} and {{vr|[[nj (digraph)|nj]]}}, which correspond to the single [[Serbian Cyrillic alphabet|Cyrillic letters]] {{vr|џ}}, {{vr|љ}}, {{vr|њ}}, are treated as distinct letters.
*In the [[Czech alphabet|Czech]] and [[Slovak alphabet]], {{vr|[[ch (digraph)|ch]]}} is treated as a distinct letter, coming after {{vr|[[h]]}} in the alphabet. Also, in the [[Slovak alphabet]] the relatively rare digraphs {{vr|[[Dz (digraph)|dz]]}} and {{vr|[[dž]]}} are treated as distinct letters.
*In the [[Danish and Norwegian alphabet]], the former digraph {{vr|[[aa (digraph)|aa]]}}, where it appears in older names, is sorted as if it were the letter {{vr|[[å]]}}, which replaced it. 
*In the [[Norwegian alphabet]], there are several digraphs and letter combinations representing an isolated sound.
*In the [[Dutch alphabet]], the digraph {{vr|[[IJ (digraph)|ij]]}} is sometimes written as a [[typographic ligature|ligature]] and may be sorted with {{vr|[[y]]}} (in the [[Netherlands]], though not usually in [[Belgium]]); however, regardless of where it is used, when a Dutch word starting with {{vr|ij}} is capitalized, the entire digraph is capitalized (''[[IJmeer]]'', ''[[IJmuiden]]''). Other [[#Dutch|Dutch digraphs]] are never treated as single letters.
*In [[Hungarian alphabet|Hungarian]], the digraphs {{vr|[[cs (digraph)|cs]]}}, {{vr|[[Hungarian dz|dz]]}}, {{vr|[[gy (digraph)|gy]]}}, {{vr|[[Hungarian ly|ly]]}}, {{vr|[[Hungarian ny|ny]]}}, {{vr|[[sz (digraph)|sz]]}}, {{vr|[[ty (digraph)|ty]]}}, {{vr|[[Hungarian zs|zs]]}}, and the trigraph {{vr|[[Hungarian dzs|dzs]]}}, have their own places in the alphabet (where e.g. {{vr|ny}} comes right after {{vr|n}})
*In [[Spanish alphabet|Spanish]], the digraphs {{vr|[[ch (digraph)|ch]]}} and {{vr|[[ll]]}} were formerly treated as distinct letters, but are now split into their constituent letters. 
*In [[Welsh alphabet|Welsh]], the alphabet includes the digraphs {{vr|[[ch (digraph)|ch]]}}, {{vr|[[dd (digraph)|dd]]}}, {{vr|[[ff (digraph)|ff]]}}, {{vr|[[ll]]}}, {{vr|[[ng (digraph)|ng]]}}, {{vr|[[ph (digraph)|ph]]}}, {{vr|[[rh (digraph)|rh]]}}, {{vr|[[th (digraph)|th]]}}. However, {{vr|[[mh (digraph)|mh]]}}, {{vr|[[nh (digraph)|nh]]}} and {{vr|[[ngh (letter)|ngh]]}}, which represent [[Consonant mutation|mutated]] voiceless consonants, are not treated as distinct letters.
*In the romanization of several Slavic countries that use the Cyrillic script, letters like ш, ж, and ю might be written as sh, zh and yu, however sometimes the result of the romanization might modify a letter to be a diacritical letter instead of a digraph.
*In [[Maltese alphabet|Maltese]], two digraphs are used, {{vr|[[gh (digraph)#Maltese|għ]]}} which comes right after {{vr|g}}, and {{vr|[[ie (digraph)|ie]]}} which comes right after {{vr|i}}.

Most other languages, including most of the Romance languages, treat digraphs as combinations of separate letters for alphabetization purposes.
