ligature

Two or more characters combined to represent a single typographical character. The modern Latin script uses only a few. Other scripts use many ligatures that depend on font and style. Some languages, such as Arabic, have mandatory ligatures. Other languages have characters that were derived from ligatures, such as the German ligature of long and short “s” (ß) and the ampersand (&), which is the contracted form of the Latin word “et.”
