Dž (titlecase form; all-capitals form DŽ, lowercasedž) is a digraph of the Latin script. In Serbo-Croatian, it is treated as the seventh letter of Gaj's Latin alphabet, being placed after D and before Đ.

It is pronounced [ɖʐ] or [d͡ʒ], like "j" in English. Dž is a digraph that corresponds to the letter Dzhe (Џ/џ) of the Serbian Cyrillic alphabet. It is also the tenth letter of the Slovak alphabet. Although several other languages (see below) also use the letter combination DŽ, they treat it as a pair of the letters D and Ž, not as a single distinct letter.

When the letter is the initial of a capitalised word (like Džungla or Džemper, or personal names like Džemal or Džamonja), the ž is not uppercase. Only when the whole word is written in uppercase, is the Ž capitalised.

The capitalized version of this letter ('DŽ'), as a single character in Unicode, is also the largest character amongst every Latin character in size (in blocks Basic Latin, Latin Extended-A, Latin Extended-B).
