Some older German esperantists do this, which is quite weird since u-breve in Esperanto is a different letter. (Actually I always found that usage strange, even in German, where regular "u" with "decorative" breve does indeed look different from "n" but almost identical to u-umlaut...) Anyway, this reminds me of cyrillic cursive handwriting, where these same three "wavelets" used for latin "m" (U+006D) stand rather for a "т" (U+0442) when there is a stroke over them, for a "щ" (U+0449) when there is a stroke bellow them, and for a "ш" (U+0448) when there is no stroke. Hursive candwriting "м" (U+043C) has a distinct angle in the middle, not waves. -- ____. Anto'nio MARTINS-Tuva'lkin | ()| <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> |####| R.
