- List_of_words_that_may_be_spelled_with_a_ligature abstract "This list of words that may be spelled with a ligature in English encompasses words which have letters that may, in modern usage, either be rendered as two distinct letters or as a single, combined letter. This includes AE being rendered as Æ and OE being rendered as Œ. Note that when a c is before a ligature, it makes the sound /s/ rather than /k/ as might be expected (because c makes the sound /k/ before an a or o in English).Until the early twentieth century, the œ and æ ligatures had been commonly used to indicate an etymological connection with Latin or Greek. Since then they have fallen out of fashion almost completely, and are now only occasionally used for the names of historical persons, to evoke archaism, or in literal quotations of historic sources. These ligatures are proper letters in some Scandinavian languages, and so are used to render names from those languages, and likewise names from Old English or Anglo-Saxon.The fl and fi ligatures, among others, are still commonly used to render modern text in fine typography. Page-layout programs such as QuarkXPress and Adobe InDesign can be configured to automatically replace the individual characters with the appropriate ligatures. However this is a typographic feature and not part of the spelling.".
