====Romance==== :* In [[Asturian language|Asturian]], [[Galician language|Galician]] and [[Spanish alphabet|Spanish]], the character {{angbr|[[ñ]]}} is a letter and collated between ''n'' and ''o''. :* [[Asturian language|Asturian]] uses an underdot: {{angbr|[[Ḷ]]}} ([[lower case]], {{angbr|ḷ}}), and {{angbr|[[Voiceless glottal fricative|Ḥ]]}} ([[lower case]] {{angbr|ḥ}})<ref>{{cite book|url=http://www.academiadelallingua.com/diccionariu/gramatica_llingua.pdf |title=Gramática de la Llingua Asturiana |access-date=2011-06-07 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110525120027/http://www.academiadelallingua.com/diccionariu/gramatica_llingua.pdf |archive-date=2011-05-25 |publisher=Academia de la Llingua Asturiana | edition=3rd | date=2001 | isbn=84-8168-310-8 | at=section 1.2}}</ref> :* [[Catalan language|Catalan]] uses the acute accent {{angbr|é}}, {{angbr|í}}, {{angbr|ó}}, {{angbr|ú}}, the grave accent {{angbr|à}}, {{angbr|è}}, {{angbr|ò}}, the diaeresis {{angbr|ï}}, {{angbr|ü}}, the cedilla {{angbr|ç}}, and the [[interpunct]] {{angbr|l·l}}. ::* In [[Valencian language|Valencian]], the circumflex {{angbr|â}}, {{angbr|ê}}, {{angbr|î}}, {{angbr|ô}}, {{angbr|û}} may also be used. :* [[Corsican language|Corsican]] uses the following in [[Corsican alphabet|its alphabet]]: {{angbr|À}}/{{angbr|à}}, {{angbr|È}}/{{angbr|è}}, {{angbr|Ì}}/{{angbr|ì}}, {{angbr|Ò}}/{{angbr|ò}}, {{angbr|Ù}}/{{angbr|ù}}. :* [[French language|French]] uses four diacritics, appearing on vowels (circumflex, acute, grave, diaeresis) and the cedilla appearing in {{angbr|ç}}. :* [[Italian language|Italian]] uses two diacritics, appearing on vowels (acute, grave) :* [[Leonese language|Leonese]]: could use {{angbr|ñ}} or {{angbr|[[List of Latin digraphs#N|nn]]}}. :* [[Portuguese language|Portuguese]] uses a tilde with the vowels {{angbr|a}} and {{angbr|o}} and a cedilla with c. :* [[Romanian alphabet|Romanian]] uses a [[breve]] on the letter ''a'' ({{angbr|[[ă]]}}) to indicate the sound [[schwa]] {{IPA|/ə/}}, as well as a circumflex over the letters ''a'' ({{angbr|[[â]]}}) and ''i'' ({{angbr|[[î]]}}) for the sound {{IPA|/ɨ/}}. Romanian also writes a [[comma below]] the letters ''s'' ({{angbr|[[ș]]}}) and ''t'' ({{angbr|[[ț]]}}) to represent the sounds {{IPA|/ʃ/}} and {{IPA|/t͡s/}}, respectively. These characters are collated after their non-diacritic equivalent. :* [[Spanish language|Spanish]] uses acute accents ({{angbr|á}}, {{angbr|é}}, {{angbr|í}}, {{angbr|ó}}, {{angbr|ú}}) to indicate stress falling on a different syllable than the one it would fall on based on default rules, and to distinguish certain one-syllable homonyms (e.g. {{lang|es|el}} (masculine singular definite article) and {{lang|es|él}} [he]). The acute accent is also used to break up sequences of vowels that would normally be pronouced as a diphthong into two syllables, as in the word {{lang|es|reír}}. Diaeresis is used on u only, to distinguish the combinations {{lang|es|gue, gui}} {{IPA|/ge/, /gi/}} from {{lang|es|güe, güi}} {{IPA|/gwe/, /gwi/}}, e.g. {{lang|es|vergüenza, lingüística}}. The tilde on {{angbr|ñ}} is not considered a diacritic as {{angbr|ñ}} is considered a distinct letter from {{angbr|n}}, not a mutated form of it.
