The Lushootseed alphabet has forty-six letters as follows:
- ʔ, a, b, b̓, c, c̓, č, č̓, d, dᶻ, ə, g, gʷ, h, i, ǰ, k, k̓, kʷ, k̓ʷ, l, l̓, ɫ, ƛ̓, m, m̓, n, n̓, p, p̓, q, q̓, qʷ, q̓ʷ, s, š, t, t̓, u, w, w̓, xʷ, x̌, x̌ʷ, y, y̓
The following digraphs (two-letter combinations) also have designated pronunciations:
Note: Due to software limitations, it is not possible at this time to alphabetize this wiki according to the normal Lushootseed alphabetical order. It is hoped that this will change with future versions of the software. For now, a letter combined with an ejective mark and/or a superscript letter is simply considered part of that letter, so that gʷ is classified under g and q̓ʷ is classified under q. In addition, letters not part of the English alphabet are ordered after all the other letters. The specific order is:
- a, b-b̓, c-c̓, d-dᶻ, g-gʷ, h, i, k-k̓-kʷ-k̓ʷ, l-l̓, m-m̓, n-n̓, p-p̓, q-q̓-qʷ-q̓ʷ, s, t-t̓, u, w-w̓, xʷ, x̌-x̌ʷ, y-y̓, č-č̓, š, ə, ƛ̓, ǰ, ʔ, ɫ
Alphabetizing is used on pages such as category pages. Examples: Category:letters of the alphabet, Category:nouns
