"used in conjunction with"? What exactly is the criteria for being part of Latin, as opposed to just being used along with it? --Ptcamn 11:01, 28 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Who made the capital form Σ represent the ‹sh› sound?[edit]

Who made the capital form Σ represent the ‹sh› sound? Does this come from some of the African languages?

Keyboard input[edit]

I removed this sentence, since it is very dubious. I don't know of any English International keyboard setting where AltGr+f is a dead key or an 'unofficial' keyboard.

The letter esh can be inserted using unofficial QWERTY "English (International)" layout: uppercase Ʃ can be inserted with AltGr+Shift/Caps Lock+F+S while lowercase ʃ is AltGr+F+S.

If anyone can show any evidence for this, please reinstate. --John Maynard Friedman (talk) 19:34, 27 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I think this actually comes from the current German Extended Keyboard Layout DIN E1 where you can type ∑ (U+2211 N-ARY SUMMATION) and ſ (U+017F LATIN SMALL LETTER LONG S) using the two given key combinations, but not actually the upper- and lowercase Ezh.
