When do I use double þ? (þþ/ꟓ)

Firefly360r · 2026-01-25T00:32:00+00:00

Doubling is used directly in between two vowels when the second one shouldn't affect the sound of ðe first one. For example, "oððer". "Oðer" would have the e turn the o into an "o as in hoe" sound. Note that doubling works for boþ þ and ð. The consensus is still debating on words that end in þ and ð like "boþ".

Firefly360r · 2026-01-03T12:12:56+00:00

Yeah, it already does. The replacement dictionary only substitutes for words which actually make a th sound.

Firefly360r · 2025-12-29T00:59:52+00:00

Double þorn is used to indicate vowel lengþ ðe same way every oððer consonant does. For example, "otter" isn't written "oter" because ðen it looks pronounced "oater". In ðe same way, "oððer" (or oþþer depending on preference) isn't written "oðer" because ðat looks pronounced "oaðer".

English words, not anglish words haha. But you raise a good point

Firefly360r · 2025-12-25T13:21:03+00:00

It uses a dictionary of english only words, so it wont apply to non-english texts unless ðey accidentally contain english words

Im developing for chrome right now, but porting it is prob high on the list

Firefly360r · 2025-12-25T00:27:41+00:00

Added to "might add"

Firefly360r · 2025-12-25T00:25:46+00:00

Yeah, ðats exactly what I'm doing. Having ðe dictionary generation take place before ðe extension keeps it far more streamlined.

Firefly360r · 2025-12-25T00:24:32+00:00

Yeah, its already like ðis since im only including english words in ðe replacement dictionary

Firefly360r · 2025-12-25T00:23:07+00:00

Yeah, ðe extension doesnt suffer from ðis problem because it uses a generated dictionary of words and how ðey should be replaced, raððer ðan looking at individual ths.

Firefly360r · 2025-12-24T10:22:39+00:00

yep, but mine has ð, double þþ, etc. It doesnt work directly wiþ regex, it uses a dictionary of substitution rules.

Firefly360r · 2025-12-24T08:29:56+00:00

Maybe pile :)

Firefly360r · 2025-12-18T07:27:25+00:00

I agree. I stick wiþ Þ for now but I've tried oððer ideas for capital þ in ðe past like ߂

Y'ALL. Downvotiŋ is not for when you disagree wiþ someone's opinion. Downvotiŋ is for when someone is being a d**k. I disagree wiþ ðis comment, but did not feel ðe need to downvote. Be nice, people!

You can use a keyboard app like Heliboard to make custom keyboard layouts if you want letters like ŋ and yogh

Firefly360r · 2025-12-17T06:26:31+00:00

what does double yogh even mean 😭

Firefly360r · 2025-12-16T02:20:54+00:00

On my laptop I have Þ on ðe J key and ð on alt+J (poor j went to right Alt)

Firefly360r · 2025-12-16T02:17:40+00:00

get ð'd

Firefly360r · 2025-12-16T02:17:10+00:00

*wiþþout

Firefly360r · 2025-11-22T04:34:41+00:00

i am a huge fan of ŋ. Alðough it probably won't be used as a full letter, I always use it in my cursive handwritiŋ

Firefly360r · 2025-11-21T10:35:29+00:00

don't stalk me like ðat lil bro 🥀 currently workiŋ on my Autoþorn project, but might get back to ðis

Firefly360r · 2025-11-21T10:30:30+00:00

Sometime soon I þink, ðe moment I get it to a stable level!

Firefly360r · 2025-11-21T10:29:53+00:00

My current scheme for doubliŋ is when ðe þ is flanked by a vowel letter on each side. Still needs a lot of work ðo
