MMA API - Diacritical Marks Support
December 6th, 2024
We've added support for diacritical marks in our MMA API.
Competitors will now display accented characters when applicable, such as Procházka, Jiří
or Peña, Julianna
. To access the diacritical marks use en_us
(instead of en
) in the language code parameter for a request.
