ü (lower case, upper case Ü)
Usage notes
This letter is used to indicate diaeresis in <qu> and <gu> before <i> and <e> (e.g., freqüência, aqüífero, agüentar, lingüiça). It has been made obsolete by the reform of 1990, but could still be used until the 31st of December 2012.
It is also used in words derived from borrowings, such as mülleriano, from German Müller (this usage isn't affected by the reform).
