Additional Notes: |
|
Chinese (traditional) ..... 在印刷上的特定字型中,非大寫或小體大寫的字母,通常比大寫字母來得小,且有上升和下降筆劃。若指具有上升和下降筆劃的手寫書體,則用詞彙「小寫體」。 |
Dutch ..... In getypte tekst, letters die in een gegeven lettertype noch de hoofdletters, noch de kleine kapitalen zijn, en die meestal kleiner zijn dan de hoofdletters en stokken en staarten gebruiken. Voor handgeschreven manuscripten met stokken en staarten wordt `miniskulen' gebruikt. |
