Hi Folks,
In the book, Unicode Demystified (p. xxii) it says:
An English-speaking programmer might assume,
for example, that given the three characters X, Y,
and Z, that if X sorts before Y, then XZ sorts before
YZ. This works for English, but fails for many
languages.
There are many cases of such digraphs.
Example from Slovak:
c d h
but
cd h ch
Cf http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr10/, searching for Slovak.

Roger,
one way to get an answer to your question is to do the following: open
page 440 of Richard Gillam’s book from which you are citing and read the
chapter /Contracting character sequences./
HTH,
Charlie
