Ø and Ä don't belong in the same alphabet...

Swedish, no?

Or do they use Ö instead of Ø? I noticed Ä tends to replace the Æ in other Skandinavisk languages. I'm guessing Ü replaces Å? (I've never studied Swedish)

Swedish uses Ö + Ä. The rest of us use Ø + Æ. Both alphabets use Å, but that's a separate letter. Ü isn't used in scandinavian languages (Only language I know that uses it is German)

Turkish uses ü and ö but no ä so that's also a combination.

Btw: Swedish used to have the Skandian letters but changed it due to reformation (to be more similar to German) and because their relationship to distance themselves from Norway due to political reasons
