Special symbols or letters

[astushkin]

Does anyone know if there's a way to include special letters in lit stories that are otherwise in English? Letters like German umlauts (the u with the two dots over it), or French accents over letters. I'm thinking probably not, but there are stories in other languages on the site, so it may not be outside the realm of possibility.

I cut and paste stories from Word into the submissions box and have included special character marks in a large number of non-English languages. So far everything has transferred correctly.

I believe all you can do are italics, underline, and bold via the formatting tags

Well, no. See #2. I don't think this is a formatting question; it's a special foreign-language letter character question.

Yep. You write them in your text editor of choice, however you normally would, and then submit as a file attachment or paste into the text box on the standard submission form. You don't need to do anything special. Literotica is not limited to the ASCII character set.

For example, this chapter of mine begins with 'Note to readers: "Yaya" (γιαγια) = Greek "grandma".'

In this one, I quote a famous song: "Vor der Kaserne, vor dem großen Tor..."

This one by AwkwardMD has Chinese:

Wren sat back and propped her feet up as she dug deeper into her bowl.

"我肏."

"It's cool that you speak Chinese."

"你做?"

Wren frowned, inferring from tone that there was a question in there she couldn't answer.

"啊呀!无知的虐待女人!我肏!"

As far as I know, Literotica can handle anything in UTF-8, which is a lot.

Cool. Thanks for the info!

You can also do many emoji, as long as they are also unicode characters. And that list is pretty big.

I use the Alt keys plus numerals for accented letters etc.

They work on most devices but NOT some mobile phones.
