Lj (Digraf)
Lj (lj dalam huruf kecil) adalah huruf yang ada dalam Bahasa Slavia, seperti dalam versi Latin dari Bahasa Serbo-Kroasia dan dalam romanisasi Makedonia, dan itu melambangkan Konsonan hampiran-sisi langit-langit /ʎ/. Untuk contoh, kata ljiljan diucapkan /ʎiʎan/. Dalam Bahasa lain mengandung huruf ⟨Lj⟩ dalam alfabet fonemik, which means that every symbol represents one sound, and is always pronounced the same way. In this case, joining the letters L dan J creates a new letter or a sound. The digraph is treated as a single letter, and therefore it has its own place in the alphabet, takes up only one space in crossword puzzles and is written in line in vertical text. However, it is not found on standard computer keyboards. Like its Latin counterpart, the Cyrillic alphabet has a specific symbol for the same sound: Љ.
In sentence case, only L is capitalized.[1]
The same sound appears in Italian spelled with ⟨gl⟩, in some variants of Spanish and Catalan as ⟨ll⟩, in Portuguese as ⟨lh⟩, in some Hungarian dialects as ⟨ly⟩ and in Latvian as ⟨l⟩. In Czech and Slovak, it is often transcribed as ⟨ľ⟩ (it is used more frequently on the latter language).
Ljudevit Gaj pertama kali memproposalkan digraf ini pada 1835.[2]
