RE: NNBSP Impact

Can anyone lend some support to the idea that U+1880 - U+1884 are actually punctuation items?
Or conversely that they letters that are part of a Mongolian word?
Thanks,
Greg

For U+1885 and U+1886, a picture showing them in the middle of text would be helpful.  If they're truly diacritics, there may be a lot else wrong with them.

The test is whether it's part of a word, not whether it joins the stem.  I think you're correct, but I need to learn more before I can usefully agree or disagree.

and up to U+1884.

I think these are part of a word.  What would you ask a spell checker to look at?
