 ====Notes====
-* <þ ð> are not distinguished in modern Liðakuin, thanks to how the common way Middle Liðakuin made an altered version of a rune when converting to the bicameral system is not very distinct for the letterforms {{Liða-text|Þþ}}. Liðakuin dictionaries often form a letter based on the Gomensayan ð-rune (which capital ''þóda'' is based on) to represent /ð/ separately; the resulting letter {{Lida-text|þ̀}} is sometimes used for /ð/ in words with it.
+<þ ð> are not normally distinguished in modern Liðakuin, thanks to how the common way Middle Liðakuin made an altered version of a rune when converting to the bicameral system is not very distinct for the letterforms {{Lida-text|Þþ}}. Liðakuin dictionaries (and orthographies for other Gomensayan languages) often add a diacritic to ''þóda'' to represent /ð/ separately; although not mandated or standard, the resulting letter {{Lida-text|þ̀}} is sometimes used for /ð/ in words with it. This especially holds for areas of the Fenril Federation where multilanguage contact is common.
+The letters for /æ o/ {{Lida-text|ä ó}} are technically ligatures (specifically, of {{Lida-text|ae  uu}}, but are considered distinct letters.
