IJ (digraph)
text:
IJ is a digraph of the letters i and j. Occurring in the Dutch language, it is sometimes considered a ligature, or a letter in itself. In most fonts that have a separate character for ij, the two composing parts are not connected but are separate glyphs, which are sometimes slightly kerned. An ij in written Dutch usually represents the diphthong, similar to the pronunciation of ⟨ay⟩ in "pay". In standard Dutch and most Dutch dialects, there are two possible spellings for the diphthong : ij and e
