Thank you for this! I'm going to ask Tas, when she gets back, to add this to her List o' resources post as well, if you don't mind. Let me know! It is both grammar and Green Day and could be a handy reference :)

By the way, if you have a UK keyboard you can make Tre, Tré by using the 'Alt Gr' button next to your space bar in the same way you use SHIFT to get a capital. Don't know if you knew, but it brings me joy ...

I am geek, yes.

I did not know that! *tries* Tré. My GOD this is good. I've just always been far too lazy, when writing, to actually go through and add the é in with the insert symbol thing in Word xD

I think I may have to add this wonderful piece of information in here xD

And I would be very honoured to be in a list of resources! =]

Excellent! And thank you again XD

Awesome post, Chelsey! I've added it to the resource post. May I ask that you edit to put a title that says something about Punctuation in Fic or w/e, and UNlock the post if you are comfortable doing so? Please and thanks in advance. The resource posts we're trying to leave available to the casual viewer since they aren't "secret" like an in-progress writing piece. But if you're not comfy putting it out for all and sundry, that's totally cool too. :-)

Elz has reminded me that I need to make a post about the é and É so everyone can use it if they want. Although I'll need to check on the É with her b/c I only know the North American keyboard method! LOL

omg question =D
Why is it Tré if the french word is Trè(s)?
Just wondering.. ok, with the è the pronouncing would be like "Trä", but... Trè just isnt right o,o

To be honest, I have no idea and I've always wondered that too, but it's Tré in the albums so there we go XD
