          There’s no umlaut in english, so it doesn’t signify any sound in english words, it’s merely a stylistic choice, kind of like writing a z at the end of a word instead of an s.

            I disagree though, when you adopt from other languages the sounds follow. Of course designers don’t feel like that, but they would be wrong.
