Default Define alphabetic sequence to sort by

You could add the sequence to a list in ToolsOptionsCustom Lists.

The DataSortOptionsFirst Key Sort Order.

Pick from dropdown.

Although I don't know what the ? marks signify.

Hello,

I would like to sort a column of words according to an alphabetic sequence
that I define. For example, a sequence could be a, ?, i, ?, u, ?, ?, ?, e,
ai, o, au, k, kh, g, gh, ?, c, ca, j, ja, ñ etc. The above sequence is part
of the alphabet of a certain transliteration standard. Anyone know how to do
this?

Thank you.
