-== MLT Usage ==
+{{MLT Alphabet}}
-In [[Modern Literal Taiwanese]], this letter is used for the sound written in [[TMSS]] as an o with a backslash. For example, [[hør]] (good), [[øar]] (oyster), [[ørgiøo]] (jelly fig), and [[Ørciw]] (Australia) are all written with ø. In many cases, the compound vowel [[øe]] may be substituted with "oe".
-==Computer Input==
-* In {{w|macOS}}, hold the {{w|option key}} while pressing o (or O).
-* On Microsoft Windows:
-** Alt-0248: hold Alt and press 0248 on the '''keypad'''
-** using the "United States-International" keyboard setting, it can be typed by holding down the "Alt-Gr" (right Alt) key and pressing "L".
-* In MS Word and EmEditor, the ø can be typed with the following keystroke: ^/o (Ctrl+Slash+o). This means hold Ctrl press Slash, release, then press o.
-* In Mozilla Firefox with the [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/459 abcTajpu] plugin, one can input this by typing o, /, then Insert.
-* In {{w|Unicode}}, '''ø''' is U+00F8 and '''Ø''' is U+00D8.
-* In HTML, {{w|named character reference}} ({{w|numeric character reference}}):
-** <tt>&amp;oslash;</tt> (<tt>&amp;#248;</tt>)
-** <tt>&amp;Oslash;</tt> (<tt>&amp;#216;</tt>)
-* In {{w|ISO 8859-1}}, the letter ø is hex number F8.
-* It is not in the [[ASCII]] seven-bit character set.
-* It is not in the big5 [http://ash.jp/code/cn/big5tbl.htm code table]. A possible workaround might be to use a Greek letter encoded in big5 (range 0xA344 to 0xA373).
-==History in Written Taiwanese==
-[[Taiwanese Modern Spelling System]] originally prescribed two special characters: the Greek letter {{wt|Ν}} (nu) and an o crossed by a backslash. In [[MLT|Modern Literal Taiwanese]], ø came into use.
-In some cases it is convenient to use [[Q]] in place of [[ø]]. Usually the Q is made smaller font size. However, "html small" formatting makes the word incompatible with [[FireDictionary]].
-==Other uses==
-{{w|Ø, Denmark}} is a piece of land in the valley of the Nørreå in the eastern part of Jutland, Denmark. Its name means "island" (Danish: {{wt|ø}}; Taigie: [[tøfsu]]).
