Definitions for "Diacritics"
Diacritics are phonetic variations, such as accents, associated with a letter. When using the Sort References command or formatting a bibliography, EndNote sorts diacritical characters according to the rules of the language that is selected on the Sort References dialog. Characters with diacritics are sorted differently in English, Spanish, Swedish, and other systems. Diacritical marks are significant in searches, as letters such as é, ü and î match only those letters exactly. Thus, a search for "résumé" does not find "resume."
In the Greek alphabet, vowels can carry diacritics, namely accents and breathings. The accents are the acute accent (´), the grave accent (`), and the circumflex . They mark the stressed syllable.
