Typography?
Since I will be writing blog posts using a variety of hardware and software, I may not easily be able to input proper accents while writing a post. I’ll strive to be consistent within a post at the least, but a post may say “pate” and “shochu” instead of “pâté” and “shōchū”.
Also, I will generally not italicize non-English terms. It is tedious to italicize when writing a blog entry, especially if the term is used repeatedly. Also, only those foreign terms unfamiliar to the reading audience should be italicized, and how should I know what terms my readers are familiar with? So expect to see “no foie gras after June 30th”, rather than “no foie gras after June 30th”.
