Dd is a digraph of the Latin alphabet, a combination of two Ds.
[edit] English
In Modern English, dd and d both represent the same sound. Doubling is used within words to indicate that the preceding vowel is "short", e.g. jaded has a "long a" (IPA: /ˈdʒeɪdəd/) while ladder has a "short a" (IPA: /ˈlædə(ɹ)/).
Dd is used in Welsh to represent a voiced dental fricative (English th in this; IPA: /ð/). It is treated as a distinct letter, named èdd, and placed between D and E in alphabetical order.
