No worries. I tried to look on my English novels first but couldn't find anything like this. I was almost certain that I saw this in one of the Roald Dahls but nope. Well, learned the official name of it too, quotation dash. Thanks.

By the way, Meta (Windows key) + . opens emoji list in KDE.

I definitely wasn't trying to write a list, it was a riddle or a conversation. What I was trying to do is this:

Though, it seems speech dash is not a thing in English. So I understand the confusion.

Apparently there is already a separate symbol for speech dash, which is —. However its keyboard shortcut is obscure and I couldn't remember it later, but Markdown already covered this it seems. Writing --- renders as —, which I'll do from now on, if I don't forget about it next time.

I don't have a screen reader installed so I cannot try it but I can guess how it can screw with it. However I agree with Monkey With A Shell here. It's not realistic for all users to follow semantics, this can only be solved with a better software.

While I use markdown daily, apparently there are still things I don't know about it. Well, I mostly learn them when I need them but still. So, I could use — (speech dash) instead of -, which I assume wouldn't cause a problem with a screen reader. There is no way for me to remember its shortcut on the keyboard, but it seems Markdown already covered this with --- which ends up rendered as —.

Thanks for making me noticing about it, learned something new today.

How is it breaking accessibility?

Well, that's the reason why I didn't write it like that. I wanted it to look like a dash, just like in novels.

-Why there are pyramids in Egypt?

-Because Brits couldn't moved them to British Museum.

Looks like a Scrin building from Command & Conquer 3.

Thank you for sharing this. It's interesting.

Just looking at the skeleton, we would reconstruct a lot of thing wrong.

I don't think I can eat whole watermelon by myself but I'll try.

Zimbabwean people would say otherwise. :)
