Accent

[edit]

Should the e be an é? --evrik 18:15, 9 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

No: in fact, the accent should not be there at all. Cosme de Torres is a Spanish person, but Torrès is how you spell his name in Portuguese. The grave accent reminds you to pronounce the "e" fully, which would not happen automatically in Portuguese, but it does happen automatically in Spanish. Note that the Spanish-language page also has no accent. I am also requesting that the page be moved for this reason. Patrick Schwemmer (talk) 02:20, 17 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
