===In Latex=== the combination <code>\"{a}</code> can mean two things:
* in most fonts: show the charachter character on the a given numerical position, which means that there is one character <context>\"{a}</context>.
* in some other fonts <code>\"{a}</code> means: combine <code>"</code> with <code>a</code> and make an <context>\"{a}</context>. This means that <code>"</code> is combined with the character on the numerical position of <code>a</code>. TeX does this very well and thus construes very acceptable diacritical signs like <code>\"{q}</code>, <code>\d{o}</code>, <code>\v{o}</code>, which do not exist in regular fonts.
