ela geminada
Catalan
Usage notes
The ela palatal is used in Catalan to represent the palatal lateral /ʎ/ with a digraph ll, so to indicate where a doubled alveolar lateral is intended /l.l/, a punt volat ( · , “interpunct”) is placed between the two ells to form an ela geminada, literally geminate ell.
It never occurs at the beginning of a word. The form *“L·l” does not exist.
