The preëminence of the e-umlaut has faded.

Didn't know that, but it's preposterous. Trying to pronounce that makes

Trying to pronounce what is preposterous?

The word "coöperation" is pronounced the way you've always pronounced it, so I 
cannot figure out what you mean.

You won't get it if you don't speak German and know how they speak it it 
the further south-east. :)

Is that what's called High German?  I am rather fascinated by languages, and 
of course Saxon is one of the root languages of English.

I suppose there's no way to convey the humor of an accent via a text medium, 
but I can imagine by reference to cognate American phenomena.

One fascinating factoid:  Not only do linguistically isolated communities, 
such as English speakers in the American Ozarks and Farsi speakers in the 
mountains of Afghanistan, retain linguistic patterns and accents longer than 
their cosmopolitan (often coastal) counterparts, the culture of the 
linguistically mixed often disparages that of their isolated brethren as 
"hillbilly" or the equivalent, and just as unfairly.

Thank you for a fascinating glimpse into German language and culture.

Saxon in this case being a German accent.

I'm terribly embarrassed about this, actually. I know a few Saxons and 
they're generally a great people. But I always have to refrain myself 
from laughing when I hear them talk. I really hate myself for that.

Same thing in biology. Isolated populations (e.g. insular ones) will 
generally retain traits longer than the population they split off from. 
Less "evolutionary pressure", so to speak.

@Lew: I think, Daniele refers to that "ö" in German is not just an "o" 
   separated from the previous vowel, but really a different sound.

@Daniele: Wie sachen's denn die Sachsen? :)

@all: thanks for your elaborations on English use of non-ASCII letters.

I'll give you references to a couple.  Make your own sentences if the ones 
therein fail to suit.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/No%C3%B6sphere

For the general use of the umlaut, or trema, in English, see
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trema_(diacritic)
"For example, in the spelling coöperate, the diaeresis reminds the reader that 
the word has four syllables co-op-er-ate, not three, *coop-er-ate. This usage 
is uncommon in English, and is always optional ..."

The ligatures 'æ' and 'œ', and others such as 'ij', 'ff', and 'fi', appear where 
their corresponding digraph appears in the conventional spelling, such as in 
the word "diæresis".

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Typographic_ligature
'In modern English orthography Æ is not considered an independent letter but a 
spelling variant, for example: "encyclopædia" versus "encyclopaedia" or 
"encyclopedia".

'Æ comes from Medieval Latin, where it was an optional ligature in some words, 
for example, "Æneas". It is still found as a variant in English and French, 
but the trend has recently been towards printing the A and E separately.'

So here's a sentence for you,

"Those with access to an encyclopædia can find in the noösphere that seven 
bits do not suffice to represent all the different letters used in English."

Oh, and to use onomatopœia,
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Onomatop%C5%93ia

Pllpptttthththtttppppplkttthhh!

Not in my part of the tech world it doesn't.
We don't do Old English Runes either.

Excuse me, but what does the "tech world" have to do with what is and is not 
in English?  Those letters are part of English orthography.  If your "part of 
the tech world" doesn't recognize that fact, then the lack of recognition is 
an error.  Ignoring reality doesn't change reality.

Well, as I said elsewhere in the thread:
"I need it to match the packet i/f specs designed by somemone else that 
requires text characters be sent as decimal ascii "

If it's not in ascii its not needed.

Ignoring what I wrote doesn't change reality either.

Hmm, some of the Wikipedia-pages you gave us were quite explicit that
these things were rather a matter of typography than of orthography.

Politicians complain that Kindles and iBooks are killing jobs by 
destroying the paper book industry.  I see it that they have create a way 
to produce books for less than a third the cost without destroying forests 
and emitting greenhouse gases in the process.  They have created wealth.  
They are encouraging literacy and cutting the costs of education.
