** Similarly, the letter ⟨z⟩ can symbolise voiced or voiceless consonants. ⟨z⟩ symbolises [[w:Voiceless alveolar affricate|/t͡s/]] onset before a vowel, when clustered with a voiceless consonant (⟨p, f, c, q⟩), and when doubled (geminate); it symbolises [[w:Voiced alveolar affricate|/d͡z/]] when between vowels (except in ''-zione'' suffixed nouns) and when clustered with voiced consonants. However, ⟨zz⟩ stands for both [[w:Gemination|/tt͡s/]] and [[w:Gemination|/dd͡z/]]. | ** Similarly, the letter ⟨z⟩ can symbolise voiced or voiceless consonants. ⟨z⟩ symbolises [[w:Voiceless alveolar affricate|/t͡s/]] onset before a vowel, when clustered with a voiceless consonant (⟨p, f, c, q⟩), and when doubled (geminate); it symbolises [[w:Voiced alveolar affricate|/d͡z/]] when between vowels (except in ''-zione'' suffixed nouns) and when clustered with voiced consonants.

* The status of the letter ⟨ð⟩ is debatable, and is one of the main reasons for common misspellings in Luthic, however, it is only used for etymological reasons, or when [[w:Voiced dental fricative|/ð/]] is needed in a position where [[w:Tuscan gorgia|Gorgia tuscana]] can not affect [[w:Voiced dental and alveolar plosives|/d/]] (vide [[Luthic#Lenition|§ Lenition]]). Nevertheless, many writers and scholars just ignore the existence of it. | |||
