keyboard quote

If you are using Windows Language facility with optional keyboard layouts, you may encounter odd behavior with entering quote marks or quotation mark characters. Check first that you have not flipped to International from US for the EN keyboard.

The keyboard icon should offer you the choice. The odd behavior is to facilitate entering accented characters.

A search using  Windows keyboard Language  should get you a useful suggestion from the web mavens.

UNICODE accented vowels for Russian

I have just discovered that my posts to this blog are unable to display accented Russian as in displaying

Еврейская автономная область

as

Евре́йская автоно́мная о́бласть

which should have appeared with accents over one vowel per word as high-lighted below:

Еврейская автономная область

as an aid to pronounciation for foreigners and as disambiguation of some words for Russians themselves.

The editor for blogspot shows no sign that there will be a problem.

To test, be sure that your browser's encoding option is set to at least utf-8.
