Note that usually Catalan has the rule one-letter-one-sound (but no one-sound-one-letter) but there are special combinations of letters with more sounds. The most importants are: ll (/λ/), ny (/ɲ/), ŀl or ela geminada /ɫɫ/, rr (/r/), ss (/s/). Digraphs rr and ss are used only between vowels. Note the existence of the character "ŀ" (l with dot) that is used to represent a sound but it is not considered a letter itself.
