ë needs to become a letter in German

[–] darkmogool@feddit.de 1 points 6 months ago (3 children)

there is no need for it… but ß needs to be gone

[–] wieson@feddit.de 1 points 6 months ago

Die you know, that ß is more frequently used than x, y, q and even j?

Are you Swiss or something? ẞ is be best letter.

ß is my favorite. All the fun of cursive qs and zs, with significantly more applicability

It is! Even if it's very, very rare.

But it does exist, for example in the Name of Bernhard Hoëcker, where it denotes a pronounciation of Ho-ecker instead of Höcker.
