Historical languages may also have used (or are now studied using) alphabets that are derived but still distinct from those of classical Latin and their modern forms (if any). </p><p>The Latin script was typically slightly altered to function as an alphabet for each different language (or other use), although the main letters are largely the same. A few general classes of alteration cover many particular cases: </p> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Diacritic" title="Diacritic">diacritics</a> could be added to existing letters;</li> <li>two letters could be fused together into <a href="/wiki/Ligature_(typography)" class="mw-redirect" title="Ligature (typography)">ligatures</a>;</li> <li>additional letters could be inserted; or</li> <li>pairs or triplets of letters could be treated as units (<a href="/wiki/Digraph_(orthography)" title="Digraph (orthography)">digraphs</a> and <a href="/wiki/Trigraph_(orthography)" title="Trigraph (orthography)">trigraphs</a>).</li></ul> <p>These often were given a place in the alphabet by defining an <a href="/wiki/Collation" title="Collation">alphabetical order</a> or collation sequence, which can vary between languages. Some of the results, especially from just adding diacritics, were not considered distinct letters for this purpose; for example, the French é and the German ö are not listed separately in their respective alphabet sequences. With some alphabets, some altered letters are considered distinct while others are not; for instance, in Spanish, ñ (which indicates a unique phoneme) is listed separately, while á, é, í, ó, ú, and ü (which do not; the first five of these indicate a nonstandard stress-accent placement, while the last forces the pronunciation of a normally-silent letter) are not. Digraphs in some languages may be separately included in the collation sequence (e.g. Hungarian CS, Welsh RH). New letters must be separately included unless collation is not practised. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Properties">Properties</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Latin-script_alphabet&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Properties"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Letter_inventory">Letter inventory</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Latin-script_alphabet&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: Letter inventory"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/List_of_Latin-script_alphabets" title="List of Latin-script alphabets">List of Latin-script alphabets</a></div> <p>Coverage of the letters of the <a href="/wiki/ISO_basic_Latin_alphabet" title="ISO basic Latin alphabet">ISO basic Latin alphabet</a> can be </p> <ul><li>complete</li> <li>partial</li></ul> <p>and additional letters can be </p> <ul><li>absent</li> <li>present, either as <ul><li>letters with diacritics (e.g. <span class="nowrap">⟨Å å⟩</span> in the <a href="/wiki/Danish_alphabet" class="mw-redirect" title="Danish alphabet">Danish</a>, <a href="/wiki/Norwegian_alphabet" class="mw-redirect" title="Norwegian alphabet">Norwegian</a> and <a href="/wiki/Swedish_alphabet" title="Swedish alphabet">Swedish</a> alphabets)</li> <li>ligatures (e. g. <span class="nowrap">⟨Æ æ⟩</span> in Danish, Norwegian, and Icelandic)</li> <li>new letter forms (e.g. <span class="nowrap">⟨Ə ə⟩</span> in the <a href="/wiki/Azerbaijani_alphabet" title="Azerbaijani alphabet">Azerbaijani alphabet</a>)</li></ul></li></ul> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Grapheme_order">Grapheme order</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Latin-script_alphabet&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: Grapheme order"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Most alphabets have the letters of the ISO basic Latin alphabet in the same order as that alphabet. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Multigraphs">Multigraphs</h4><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Latin-script_alphabet&action=edit&section=6" title="Edit section: Multigraphs"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Some alphabets regard digraphs as distinct letters, e.g. the <a href="/wiki/Spanish_alphabet" class="mw-redirect" title="Spanish alphabet">Spanish alphabet</a> from 1803 to 1994 had CH and LL sorted apart from C and L. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Diacritics_and_ligatures">Diacritics and ligatures</h4><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Latin-script_alphabet&action=edit&section=7" title="Edit section: Diacritics and ligatures"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Some alphabets sort letters that have diacritics or are ligatures at the end of the alphabet.
