Latin Spelling of Chechen Used Here (in alphabetical
order, with Cyrillic equivalents to each letter or digraph).Digraphs
are alphabetized separately as units.Thus e.g. ie
follows all tokens of i; it does not come between
id and ig, but follows iz.(The general
rule for alphabetization of digraphs is that the long vowels
aa, ee, ii, oo, uu follow directly after their short
counterparts a, e, i, o, and u.)
