From article <1491@auspex.auspex.com>, by guy@auspex.auspex.com (Guy Harris): > Yes, it is. In ISO Latin #1, it's "y with a diaresis" (what language > uses that?). French. English also, to a degree: diaresis is the only ``accentuation'' that you find in some English dictionnaries. Actually, there was a debate between French and Dutch requirement. For the Dutch language needs the same graphic for the very frequent compound ``ij'', but Dutch people would certainly not name that "y with a diaresis". Christian Huitema.
