How can you put the set of bits meaning one character "in" the set of bits meaning 
another character? One must come first!

This game I was playing had "handwriting order". To input the first kana of my name 
"juuitchan", I had to type shi and then dakuten.

I don't have my book but with Unicode I put the dakuten and then the shi, right?

rarararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararara

Like this:

With a brush: shi, THEN dakuten
With Unicode decomposed: dakuten, THEN shi
With Unicode composed: ji

Or your letter:

With a pen (NOT a brush! Romaji wrecks brushes; I've tried it): e, THEN circumflex
With Unicode decomposed: circumflex, THEN e
With Unicode composed: e with circumflex (there is an e with circumflex that is 1 
character)

The point, Mr. Maheu, is that there are two ways to get what you want.

Unicoders, did I say it right?
