England Handwriting: Difference between revisions

Some English words retain diacritics to distinguish them from others, such as resumé, exposé, lamé, öre, pâté, piqué, and ''rosé'', though these are sometimes also dropped (for example, melée/melee and ''résumé/{{Typo|res|umé}}''<!-- Please do not change this to "résumé/résumé", as using only one diacritical mark is acceptable, which is what this is illustrating. -->, is often spelt ''resume'' in the United States (as the US equivalent of ''curriculum vitae''). To clarify pronunciation, a small number of loanwords may employ a diacritic that does not appear in the original word, such as ''maté'', from Spanish ''yerba mate'', or ''Malé'', the capital of the [[Maldives]], following the French usage.
