I will use it now anytime if anything more than I, L or T should have > been capitalized. Only a, e, i, o, u need ever be marked for stress. I prefer to reserve capitals for lerfu words, in the same way that digits are used for digit words. See: > Though it's not very good with i - í may be very close > in some fonts... I've never had any trouble with it, but maybe I'm biased since my last name is spelled with an í. :) > î too, ï is nice, but not for that. :-) > Will {zai basna bu tcita bu} work to mark that? In what context? {zai} converts the following lerfu or tei-foi group into an alphabet shift, so you'd probably want {zai tei basna bu tcita bu foi} or {zai basnytcita bu}. But I'm not sure what you would want to use it for.
