 How can I make

letter? (Right now, it is tacking all of the 'ch' words at the end of
the 'c' file because of the substring(@word, 1,1) filter.

What happens with
<xsl:for-each-group
    select="Word"
    group-by="lower-case(substring(@word,1,1))"
    collation="http://saxon.sf.net/collation?lang=cs";>
?

substring() counts Unicode codepoints, not collation units, so if the word starts with 'ch', it will return 'c'.
