Thread Name: Lyr Add: Douce Nuit / Silent Night (in French)
Subject: RE: Lyr Add: Silent Night (en Francais)
Actually, it is over the "e"! In French, the "umlaut" (I don't know the French term) indicates that the second vowel in what would otherwise be a diphthong is pronounced separately. My automatic in-brain proofreader caught a few more missing accents, but I don't know how to make them appear on the screen.
jusqu'a - a grave effacer - e aigu tache - a circonflexe deliverance - premier e aigu notre - o circonflexe
Oh, that's enough, I'm tired! Great work, Genie, and thanks for adding the extra verses!
