       This. I've been translating for 20 years, and I've been complaining about British English removal of Polish diacritics for longer than that.

       @Neverfadingwood The NYT's crossword house style also strips diacritics.Every few months, they bring the Spanish word "año" ("year") into a crossword, with a clue like "January 1st in Jalisco" = "AÑO NUEVO".And the ñ loses its tilde every time.Which means the NYT is wishing everyone "Happy New Butthole."You get warned about this in Spanish 101 pretty early on, but the NYT doesn't care.
