Ä

Ä or ä are letters used in some languages. Ä and ä are both just "a"s with umlauts.

German

Germany, Austria and Switzerland

Ä or ä is one of the 4 extra letters used in German. It can be replaced by using the letters Ae or ae. In English language newspapers it is often written as A or a but this is not correct. Ä and ä are usually pronounced like the "e" in "bed".

Internet addresses are written as "ae" because the internet address system can only understand ordinary English letters.
