Comment #3 on issue 8397 by vtolkov: Russian spell-checking issues in new dictionary http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=8397
About "Ё". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yo_(Cyrillic) says about it: <<< Except for a brief period after World War II, the use of <ё> was never obligatory in standard Russian orthography. By and large, it is only used in pedagogical literature intended for children and foreign language learners, and in dictionaries. Otherwise <е> is used, and <ё> occurs only when it is necessary to avoid ambiguity (for example, to distinguish between все and всё when it is not obvious from the context which is meant) or in words (principally proper names) the pronunciation of which may not be familiar to the reader. It is however perfectly permissible under the current standard to mark <ё> whenever it occurs, and this is the preference of some Russian authors and periodicals. As a result, Firefox just has two dictionaries. I would say, that dictionary may contain both forms, as both form can be considered correct. But, from perfectioninst point of view, it is user preference. -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
