Notes on multilingual text handling.
|
||
|
||
These notes illustrate a handful of typographic and script considerations
|
||
that software dealing with international text must keep in mind. The
|
||
examples intentionally mix several writing systems so that a parser can be
|
||
exercised end to end.
|
||
|
||
Latin script covers English, French, German, Spanish and many more. The
|
||
em-dash — together with the en-dash – is used for pauses and
|
||
ranges. Curly quotes such as “hello” and ‘world’ are
|
||
preferred in polished prose, while straight quotes remain common in
|
||
source code. An ellipsis character … compresses three dots into a
|
||
single glyph.
|
||
|
||
Cyrillic script is used for Russian, Ukrainian, Bulgarian and several
|
||
other languages. A short sample: Привет,
|
||
мир. Это простой
|
||
тестовый текст.
|
||
|
||
CJK ideographs cover written Chinese, Japanese and Korean. A short
|
||
sample of each: 你好世界. こんにちは世界.
|
||
안녕하세요 세계.
|
||
|
||
Punctuation worth noting includes the middle dot ·, the section sign
|
||
§, the pilcrow ¶ and the interrobang ‽. A well-behaved text
|
||
pipeline preserves each of these exactly, normalises line endings to a
|
||
single convention, and never silently replaces characters it does not
|
||
understand.
