Typographical conventions of other languages #47

Open eyolf opened 1 year ago

Justs my two cents regarding typographical conventions in other languages:

Main level:

Norwegian: «…» (no French spaces) Danish: »…« (as Norwegian, but opposite direction. Swedish: ”…” (left-facing both before and after; silly, but that's what they do)

For inner quotation marks, there is no established convention, but the most authoritative guide recommends ‘…’ and “…” for first and second levels, respectively, in Danish and Norwegian, and ’…’ in Swedish.

Looking forward to this enhancement!

Unfortunately your list doesn't even touch the surface. A fully compliant version of this plugin would have to support a lot of different languages.
