Yes, that is true, when it comes to complete texts. Other than that it is common to sporadically use it in texts when it comes to names (people, locations), at least for the 1st occurrence in the text, especially when they're not too common, or else, it'll be pretty hard to properly pronunciate. Think of it as English mostly without vowels. For example, in this case, without the diacritics, it's hard to guess that Somrst (or Sumrst?) should be pronounced Somerset, or James Clmo (or Clmoo?) is, indeed James Clemo.

So sorry for not mentioning it earlier, I'm still new to all of this. This is a kepub.epub file.
