Here's a question for our native speakers -
When verbally spelling a word that contains accents, how would one speak them? Say Alizée was spelling her name to somebody for example, would she say "A L I Z E aigu E," or spell her name and add the accent notations at the end, or what? I don't know why, but I suddenly though about that earlier, and realized that with the vast number of accents in French, there must be a standard and simple way of handling it.
