What do you call it?
Hi there! What do you call a combination of two letters that makes a single sound such as "ch", "sh", "gh" etc. I remember someone told me its name but it escapes me now.

Re: What do you call it?
ch, sh, z, zh... are sibilants. gh is not in the same group and I'm not sure if it has any name
