Ny (digraph)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ny is a digraph in a number of languages such as Catalan, Hungarian, Indonesian, and Luganda. In most of these languages it denotes the palatal nasal (/ɲ/).
It has had widespread use for languages of West Africa, though in some countries the IPA letter, ɲ, is now used.
[edit] Hungarian
Ny is the twenty-third letter of the Hungarian alphabet. It is pronounced (using English pronunciation with letter romanization) "eny" (IPA: /ɛɲ/) in the alphabet, but just "ny" (/ɲ/) when spoken in a word. In Hungarian, even if two characters are put together to make a different sound, they are considered one letter, and even acronyms keep the letter intact.
These examples are Hungarian words that use the letter ny, with the English translation following.
- anya = mother
- enyém = mine
- annyi = so much
- anyós = mother-in-law
- ernyő = umbrella
