Alex, it's perhaps worth noting that accents above words can (in Ancient Greek, at least) safely be omitted. They are there simply to indicate how the word is stressed, and do not form a part of the "spelling" of the word. The "apostrophe" at the start of the word is different; that's a "breathing mark" and indicates whether of not the word starts with an "h". It is a part of the word's spelling and must be there.
