I'm going through WCAG 2.0 (Wu-Kag Two), now it's at candidate recommendation stage it seems like a good time to revisit it. And I just found Ruby. It's a way of putting in a bit of code that explains how you pronounce a word correctly (like desert (running away) or desert (hot place)). When rendered correctly it puts the pronouncation on top of the word. If it isn't, it puts it in parentheses as per my example above.

Why have I never seen this before?* It's cool!!

Now I've just gotta find an excuse to use it somewhere.. er, where it rendered properly. Not like here.

*obviously coz it seems to be specifically for Japanese sites.. but still..
