English spelling was also influenced by Norman in this period, with the and sounds being spelled th rather than with the Old English letters þ ( thorn ) and ð ( eth ), which did not exist in Norman.

Some sources distinguish " diacritical marks " ( marks upon standard letters in the A-Z 26-letter alphabet ) from " special characters " ( letters not marked but radically modified from the standard 26-letter alphabet ) such as Old English and Icelandic eth ( Ð, ð ) and thorn ( uppercase Þ, lowercaseþ ), and ligatures such as Latin and Anglo-Saxon Æ ( minuscule: æ ), and German eszett ( final-ß, often-ss even in German ).

In Icelandic, ð represents a voiced dental fricative like th in English " them ", but it never appears as the first letter of a word.

The letter ð was used throughout the Anglo-Saxon era, but gradually fell out of use in Middle English, practically disappearing altogether by 1300 ; þ survived longer, ultimately being replaced by the modern digraph th by about 1500.

The ð is also used by some in written Welsh to represent the letter ' dd ' ( the voiced dental fricative ).

An Old and Middle English letter has become a false friend in modern English: the letters thorn ( þ ) and eth ( ð ) were used interchangeably to represent voiced and voiceless dental fricatives now written in English as th ( as in " thick " and " the ").

The letter thorn was used for writing Old English very early on, as was ð ; but, unlike ð, thorn remained in common use through most of the Middle English period.

In Old English, ð ( referred to as ðæt by the Anglo-Saxons ) was used interchangeably with þ ( thorn ) to represent either voiced or voiceless dental fricatives.

Its pronunciation has not varied much, but in earlier times þ was sometimes used instead of ð as in the word " verþa " which is verða ( meaning " to become ") in modern Icelandic.

Some adaptations of the Latin alphabet are augmented with ligatures, such as æ in Old English and Icelandic and Ȣ in Algonquian ; by borrowings from other alphabets, such as the thorn þ in Old English and Icelandic, which came from the Futhark runes ; and by modifying existing letters, such as the eth ð of Old English and Icelandic, which is a modified d. Other alphabets only use a subset of the Latin alphabet, such as Hawaiian, and Italian, which uses the letters j, k, x, y and w only in foreign words.

In the orthography for Elfdalian, the ð represents a voiced dental fricative like th in English " them ", and it follows d in the alphabet.

) While Rotokas has a small alphabet because it has few phonemes to represent ( just eleven ), Book Pahlavi was small because many letters had been conflated — that is, the graphic distinctions had been lost over time, and diacritics were not developed to compensate for this as they were in Arabic, another script that lost many of its distinct letter shapes.

An abugida ( from Ge ‘ ez አቡጊዳ ’ äbugida ), also called an alphasyllabary, is a segmental writing system in which consonant – vowel sequences are written as a unit: each unit is based on a consonant letter, and vowel notation is secondary.
