@frivoal i think we're almost done, but here are some final suggestions: 1. Per the discussion in [this comment](https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/5973#issuecomment-1476671189), I would like to add one more line to the Hyphenation Across Languages examples, to show a hyphenation mark in LTR text that is clearly not a hyphen. I suggest using the svg images for Plains Cree at the bottom of this comment field. 2. I don't think it helps much to have to expand example 16 to view it – the table isn't huge, so i'd remove the details tag. 3. The first para in 5.4 says "and **visually indicating the split** (usually by inserting a hyphen, U+2010)" (my emphasis). My view is that, even though we call this 'hyphenation', that is a western bias, and 'hyphenation' actually relates to splitting of words to fit on a line, and doesn't necessarily indicate that there needs to be a visual indicator. For example, Malayalam needs hyphenation rules but uses no visual indicator – see [an example](https://r12a.github.io/scripts/mlym/ml.html#hyphenation). I think the text could say "usually indicating the split", or we could drop that phrase. SVG images for Cree example:    -- GitHub Notification of comment by r12a Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/5973#issuecomment-1747245681 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-config
