33,897 posts	* offtopic : Dagor about Hungary your right but about Russia - Russland / Rußland (Ger) I must say the German use the ß it's the same as SS No, that is a common mistake that foreigners make. ß and ss have never been the same. ß is another notation for sz and is historically not the same as ss at all. A simplification is that sz is used after a long vocal, whereas ss is following a short vocal. The 'nieuwe spelling' in Germany has dealt partially with that, so the correct spelling of Russia is logically Russland now. A good example is 'daß' ... the old pronounciation would be daaas, but nowadays people pronounce it short ... dass ... consequently, the correct spelling is now dass.
