	metaplasm and episynaloephe and diaresis and diaeresis and antithesis and metathesis
		Diaresis (aka diaeresis) is ultimately derived from the word from which we get "heresy" in English.
		A "heresy" is a division, and so diaresis is a division within the word, where one syllable is "divided" into two.
		I think it is best not to teach the word diaresis to high schoolers lest they confuse it with a bodily function that is often on the mind of middle and high-schoolers.

		These are pronounced [ge], [gi], [ke], [ki] when unmarked; with the diaresis — namely, güe, güi, qüe, qüi — the "U" is pronounced, yielding [gwe], [gwi], [kwe], and [kwi]; e.g.
		The diaresis is only used in Brazil, and increasingly omitted (some newspapers and many people don't use it).
		The diaresis does not indicate stress, and indeed a word may contain other diacritics — such as argüição ("questioning"), or qüinqüelíngüe ("in five languages", conjectured to be the Portuguese word with most diacritics).

	Talk:Ü - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		This is specific for U with diaresis and is not generally true for any other letters with diacritic marks.
		Hence a German name such as "Günter" would still be the same in Swedish, but "Gunter" or "Guenter" in English.
		This treatment of "Ü" in Swedish is merely limited to German names, and use by the same letter in a Turkish or Estonian name would probably lose its diaresis.

		Fonts Filter: In MS Word 2002, I'm trying to type a "combining diaresis" (umlaut applied to the preceding character).
		When it does work, I get the combining diaresis correctly applied to the previous character, and the font remains what it was (I've seen it work with times new roman, tahoma, arial, etc).
		To type in the diaresis (aka umlaut), i'm using a temporary custom key assignment that I created using MKLC (microsoft keyboard layout creator).

		Actually, my calling a diaresis an umlaut was simply a clumsy attempt at teaching "Diacritical Marks 101".
		"Diaresis", however, is a pretty rare and obscure term in English-language conversation, at least in the American South.

	The Old New Thing : Any similarity to actual German or Swedish words is purely coincidental
		I believe the use of the diaresis in that case is intended to echo its use in French, in words like naïve, where it indicates that the two vowels are to be pronounced separately.
		Except that naïve is still commonly spelled with the diaresis while cooperation is not.
		The use of the diaresis to indicate a separate pronunciation of consecutive vowels has a long tradition in English typesetting that was only recently abandoned.

		>From a linguistic viewpoint, this might be regarded as a diaresis, rather than as an umlaut.
		This is wrong, the diacritic mark does not produce a diaresis here, as there are no vowels to be pronounced distinctly, like in the Spanish word lingüista (linguist, linguistic).
		Motörhead and Co. do also only use the umlaut letters, but you cannot really regard the use of the letters as umlauts (in the phonological/phonetic sense), because "Motörhead" is still pronounced "Motorhead".

		ä,ë,ï Two dots (trema, diaresis, umlaut) over a vowel replace the single sub- or superimposed dot which, as well as a ‘hardener’, serves as a ‘shortener’ in my typewritten transcripts.
		The diaresis does an additional job in transcripts where I’m using non-standard orthography.
		If that word carries a diaresis, this means that while such a spelling could be the result of a lapse of transcriber concentration, in this case it does indicate the way the word was pronounced.

	Standard Orthography (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		Because they're all spoken by humans and species with similar phonologic capabilities, this standardization does not impose unnecessary constraints on the languages.
		The diaresis marks separations of adjacent vowels into separate syllables where the vowels would normally form a diphthong and also marks vocalic "y" in contexts where it might be mistaken for consonantal "y".
		Note also that if the first vowel of a pair is marked in any of these ways that the pair of vowels is always two syllables.

		In German, if you're on a system which can't manage umlauts, it's OK to remove the diaresis and add an "e".
		This doesn't apply in all languages, or for all uses of the diaresis.
		So in English/French one converts naïve to naive, not naieve, because the diaresis is used to signify the diphtong here (it tells the reader to pronounce both the "a" and the "i" in succession).

	Homeric Recitation - Rhythm (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		This is actually quite problematic, because there is an unresolved and probably irresolvable debate about whether the ictus beats in a line were more or less evenly spaced (as assumed for example by Danek and Hagel), or whether there were one or more gaps, typically located in the midline caesura and sometimes bucolic diaresis positions.
		The norm I mostly adhere to is to have three evenly spaced ictus beats, then skip one for the caesura, then three more, then skip one at the end of the line (where there will always be a real pause), giving eight in all.
		I don't like the absence of timing delays at some of the line-internal grammatical boundaries, but maybe the Greeks had no problem with that, or the rhapsodes had ways of making it sound better.

		Second, the String contains the problem character decomposed into two characters (not bytes): an accent character (the diaresis, \u0308) and a base character (the "A", \u0041), according to the standard Unicode character representation rules.
		The way to eliminate the "extra" character is to either run the Unicode composing algorithm on the String (not byte array), transforming the decomposed character pair into the Unicode character LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A WITH DIARESIS, or to change the name of the file to eliminate the accent mark.
		The only way to guarantee in a cross-platform way that there will be only one byte per character in file names is to restrict the characters used in file names to the ASCII characters from 0 to 127.

		Final "ë" is pronounced exactly like non-final "e"; the diaresis indicated that the sound does not change, or vanish like it often does in English.
		The long and short is that ë = e, both of which are to be pronounced as the vowel in "bed" (in the majority of English dialects).
		The diaresis over the "e" indicates no sound change, whatsoever.

		Printed documents should ideally use œ systematically whenever "e" follows "o" to make a compound sound resembling eu; that is, without a diaresis (written or at least heard); thus, coefficient does not take a œ, because the o and e sounds are pronounced distinctly.
