How Luxembourgish is written
Luxembourgish is spoken in Luxembourg. Books in Luxembourgish use the Latin alphabet.
Luxembourgish has an official spelling with ë and é, and a rule of its own: a final n is dropped before many consonants, so the same word appears with and without it. A short text can pass for German.
