Yeah. It's spelled "resumé" or "resume", not "résumé". (That would be pron "ray-zu-may" rather than "reh-zu-may".)

- benhoyt 17y agoActually, all three are correct. From http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/r%C3%A9sum%C3%A9#Usage_notes http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/r%C3%A9sum%C3%A9#Usage_notes -- "In the US, there are three major spellings of this word: résumé, resumé, and resume. All three are in common usage and all three are occasionally contested. The usual justification for each is usually as follows..." Update: Being pragmatic, I should probably use "resume", because that's how Google Jobs spells it.

- IsaacSchlueter 17y agoHm, "protégé, émigré, née, and élan" all bother me, too. The diacritic means "pronounce this", imo, but English is as she is spoke. Yeah, it's the web, it's probably safest to stick to ascii ;P
