No, neither if the alternatives are corect! I will repeat, but in another form :) Accepted quotation marks in Romanian are _only_ the pairs: U201E+U201D and U00AB+U00BB No other quotation marks are allowed, so http://www.unicode.org/cldr/data/diff/by_type/delimiters.html is wrong to state that U201A+U2019 are ok for Romanian. > I found that on several other lingusitic sources and you might > compare taht to romanian books. > two sources: > http://www.istrianet.org/istria/linguistics/istrorumeno/alphabet.htm and Note that Istoromanian is not the same as Romanian. > http://www.unicode.org/cldr/data/diff/by_type/delimiters.html > > >> http://www.witch.westfalen.de/csstest/quotes/quotes-large.html > > Seems you did not look there, did you?

Now I did ;-) As a conclusion: - the only valid quotation maks in Romanian are U201E+U201D and U00AB+U00BB; - the only accepted combining ways for the quotes are only between the two pairs refered above; - the pair U201E+U201D is the prefered outer qoutation; - U00AB+U00BB is accepted also as the outer pair, but strongly regarded by many as an unusual practice and some say is wrong (but that might be too strong). -- Regards, EddyP ============================================= "Imagination is more important than knowledge" A.Einstein
