[edit] Nasalization on Wikipedia

I'm working on articles around the Gbe languages. These languages all have phonemic nasalized vowels, and the standard orthography for writing these is adding a tilde above the vowel. I can't find the e+tilde in Wikipedia:Special Characters, however. A workaround or solution might be the one already used at, for example Fon: that is, indicate nasalization on the vowel by writing a nasal after the vowel. Anyone suggestions? strangeloop 13:13, 16 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Never mind. Use ẽ, thank Lee. strangeloop 19:37, 16 Aug 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Miscellany

"in quite some orthographies" : the meaning of this is obscure. Someone who knows the topic should rephrase. Matt Whyndham 12:16, 7 August 2007 (UTC)
