Talk:Umlaut
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This disambig page replaces the article previously at this site, which after due consultation has now been moved to Germanic Umlaut. --Doric Loon 21:02, 14 April 2006 (UTC)
This page is written in very esoteric terms. Any chance someone could either make it easier to understand for non-linguists or link the various terms to their own articles? The former is preferable. 199.126.31.193 18:27, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
- This is a disambig page, so we don't want lots of links other than to the pages being disambigated. I find it very clear and precise, but then I am a linguist. The explanations of the terms are to be found in the linked articles. You are welcome to try to make this simpler, but it should not become wordier, and must stay precise. --Doric Loon 23:55, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Typing
How the fuck do you type an umlaut? I've been trying to find out for a week now. Quadzilla99 13:56, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
- Get a German keyboard! ;-) --Doric Loon 19:24, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
- Ok, sorry for being flippant. See Umlaut (diacritic)#Keyboard input. --Doric Loon 19:28, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
- None of those work on my computer I've tried them all, that's why I'm asking. Quadzilla99 21:05, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
