Hyphenation occurs in writing Mongolian and Todo. U+1806 MONGOLIAN TODO SOFT HYPHEN is used to indicate resumption of a broken word. It functions like U+2010 HYPHEN, except that it appears at the beginning of a line rather than at the end. (Note that lines of Mongolian text are vertical, and progress from left to right.) Specs: issue Better describe the likely outcomes of hyphenation Open. https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/5973 css-text Describes how to apply hyphenation. It makes no special mention of Mongolian, nor of which character to use and where. https://drafts.csswg.org/css-text-3/#hyphenation css-text Has a hyphenate-character property which will allow users to specify the character to use for hyphenation, but it doesn't allow control of the location of the character. https://drafts.csswg.org/css-text-4/#hyphenation Actual results: Note: Webkit is unable to display traditional Mongolian script, so this is a secondary problem. It still needs to be logged, however, so that it can be fixed for Mongolian content authors once they are able to use WebKit browsers.
