Marshallese uses the letters L/l, M/m, N/n, and O/o with cedilla. The Ad Hoc http://www.unicode.org/L2/L2013/13128-latvian-marshal-adhoc.pdf concluded that encoding LATIN CAPITAL LETTER MARSHALLESE L WITH CEDILLA LATIN SMALL LETTER MARSHALLESE L WITH CEDILLA LATIN CAPITAL LETTER MARSHALLESE N WITH CEDILLA LATIN SMALL LETTER MARSHALLESE N WITH CEDILLA would cause the least architectural disruption and would be the best way to proceed.
How can that be the best way? How would one rationalize using one diacritic U+0327 with M/m and O/o but not with L/l and N/n in Marshallese? A single combining diacritic to use with Marshallese L/l, M/m, N/n and O/o would be easier to deal with. It would require less new characters to be encoded and would make it easier to support in fonts (adding 1 instead of 4). It would also be easier to implement on keyboard layouts (same behaviour four all Marshallese letters with cedilla instead of 2 different behaviours) . -- Denis Moyogo Jacquerye African Network for Localisation http://www.africanlocalisation.net/ Nkótá ya Kongó míbalé --- http://info-langues-congo.1sd.org/ DejaVu fonts --- http://www.dejavu-fonts.org/
