[edit]Oddly, on my system (Firebird 0.6.1, Linux, some mismash of fonts), the "wrong" and "right" versions for the s do differ, but for the t both show up as "t with comma below" -- neither is "t with cedilla." --Delirium 07:30, Aug 26, 2003 (UTC)
- Never mind, I had misread the first time, and this is mentioned in the text. --Delirium 07:50, Aug 26, 2003 (UTC)
It's probably easiest if the general discussion on cedilla versus comma happened in one place, and I've started by arguing for it on Talk:Romanian Alphabet.
However, I also deleted a comment about 1860. It left me wondering why 1860; the date seemed very devoid of context. After looking around to Romanian language, I discovered that was the year of the first official standardization of Romanian. Which leaves me with two questions: were s/t with cedilla/comma even used before then, and which forms did they show? Perhaps backed up with explanations, it could be useful, but alone it's more confusing than explanitory. --Prosfilaes 06:26, 3 Jan 2005 (UTC)
Suggest merging
[edit]I suggest to merge Special Romanian Unicode characters into Romanian alphabet because both articles discuss about the history of S-comma and T-comma, and that the character encoding problem is also mentioned in Romanian alphabet article. --Hello World! 16:01, 15 October 2005 (UTC)
