The acute and grave accent can respectively mark stressed short vowels and stressed long vowels (or diphthongs). However, these are generally not used except in dictionaries for clarity. In addition, Niemish orthography uses five digraphs ⟨Ch, Cz, Ph, Sz, Th⟩ and two trigraphs ⟨Dsz, Zsz⟩; these function as sequences of two or three letters for collation purposes. The letters ⟨C⟩ (outside the digraphs ⟨Ch, Cz⟩), ⟨Q⟩ and ⟨V⟩ (and the non-palatalised phonetic value of ⟨V⟩) only appear in loanwords, as do the digraphs ⟨Ph, Th⟩ and the trigraph ⟨Dsz⟩.

The acute and grave accent can respectively mark stressed long vowels (or diphthongs) and stressed short vowels. These are generally not used except in dictionaries for clarity.
 
In addition, Niemish orthography uses six digraphs:
⟨Ch, Cz, Ph, Sz, Th, Tz⟩
and two trigraphs:⟨Dsz, Zsz⟩
These function as sequences of two or three letters for collation purposes.
 
Outside digraphs, the letters ⟨C, Q, V⟩ only appear in loanwords, as do the digraphs ⟨Ph, Th⟩ and the trigraph ⟨Dsz⟩.
