 | | The initial proposal was to place it first, before A, B, C. Its place as the last letter of the alphabet, as in Norwegian, was decided in 1955. |
 | | The difference between the Dano-Norwegian alphabet and the Swedish alphabet, is that Swedish uses the variant Ä instead of Æ, and the variant Ö instead of Ø — as in German. |
 | | Additionally, in current Danish and Norwegian, W is recognized as a seperate letter from V. In Danish, the transition was in 1980, before that the W was merely considered to be a variation of the letter V and words using it were alphabetized accordingly (e.g.: Wales, Vallø, Washington, Wedellsborg, Vendsyssel). |
