A way to add personality to any electronic writing.

You want to pretend you're from France, have it automatically translate "Hello, How are you today?" into "Allo, Ow are yoo today?"

       Could you combine accents? Like, make your e-mail seem like it's from a Jewish hillbilly, for example. "Oy, Paw! Such a consarn revenuer is here about the still you done forgot to take apart, already!" And so forth.

       As an aside....   

       Personally, I wish keyboards had accent keys. Type the vowel and then press the key to cycle through the accent options. It's much easier than remembering the shortcuts and faster then using the insert symbol functions.
