     There are a number of less-used marks in \LaTeX{} which are used
-    to enter non-\ASCII{} characters, especially those used in
-    European names.  Given that these are often used adjacent to other
-    characters, the markup required to produce the proper character
-    may need to be followed by a space or an empty group, or the
-    markup can be enclosed in a group.  Some which are found in Python
-    documentation are:
+    to enter characters which are not found in \ASCII{} or which a

+    that these are often used adjacent to other characters, the markup
+    required to produce the proper character may need to be followed
+    by a space or an empty group, or the markup can be enclosed in a
+    group.  Some which are found in Python documentation are:
