“In writing<\/a> and typography<\/a>, a ligature<\/b> occurs where two or more\u00a0graphemes<\/a> or letters are joined as a single glyph<\/a>. Ligatures usually replace consecutive characters sharing common components and are part of a more general class of glyphs called “contextual forms”, where the specific shape of a letter depends on context such as surrounding letters or proximity to the end of a line.<\/p>\n

By way of example, the common ampersand<\/a> (“&”) represents theLatin<\/a> conjunctive<\/a> word et<\/i>, for which the English<\/a> equivalent is the word “and”. The ampersand’s symbol is a ligature, joining the old handwritten Latin letters e<\/i> and t<\/i> of the word et<\/i>, so that the word is represented as a single glyph.[1]<\/a>” \u00a0wikipedia<\/a><\/sup><\/p>\n
