I'm making progress, albeit slowly.
One snag I have encountered is how to specify the names of months. This
language (Tiv) does not have specific names for months, we simply number
the months counting from one to twelve, with January being "one" and
December being "twelve". We however prepend a st
The use of U+0331 or U+0332 should not depend on support in different
applications, but on the actual orthography of the language. According
to the Unicode standard, U+0331 is a bit shorter, while U+0332 is

Thanks, will keep you posted.
