Writing symbols and extended characters
All symbols and extended characters begin with the stroke in the Graffiti writing area of your
communicator:
When the Symbol Shift is active, a slanted shift symbol appears in the lower-right corner of the
screen. The next stroke that you make creates the symbol or extended character.
Writing accented characters
To create accented characters, draw the stroke normally used to create the letter, followed by an
accent stroke. Graffiti writing then adds the accent to the letter.
For example, the following diagram shows the strokes required to draw an accented “e.”
Accent strokes
Using these accent strokes, you can write the following accented letters:
à á â ã ä å è é ê ì í î ï ò ó ô õ ö ù ú û ü ÿ ý ñ
