Re: Acute accents over non-vowels

En réponse à Phillip Driscoll :

Not if you speak typographese ;))) . "Sans" when used with fonts means only 
"sans serif" and is to be treated like an adjective, not like a 
preposition. Same with "Unicode" here. It's an adjective describing the 
noun "Lucida". If you had something like "Times bold Unicode", would you 
read it as if Unicode was courageous? ;)))

You need a straight mind to invent a twisted conlang.
