Greetings
Let me preface this query by saying how much I appreciate the input of the
various contributors of this email group, and I always look forward to your
thoughts.
I have already looked at Sections 13 and 14 in the UEB Rule Book, but want to
know about a situation that doesn't seem to be covered there.
In an English-language text containing a single word in a language with a
different alphabet, is there a *generic* way to handle this situation in UEB?
For example, if there is a person's name in which there is a non-English (nor
French, nor German, nor Spanish) character which is not a "known" letter, what
can be done with this in UEB?
Thoroughly made up example: In SEB, if you came across something sort of like a
T with an unknown twirly bit on it, the generic accent (dot 4) followed by a T
would do the trick.
Do we have any similar "patch" in UEB?
Again, I am *not* asking about any of the characters which may be listed in the
UEB Rule Book.
Thanks in advance!
Margaret
