See here (use the "code decimal" versions):

Every title of every post is embedded in the post URL and URLs don't contain diacriticals. http://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/post-title-url/

I see that I can copy/paste. Haven't learned about typing code in yet... yikes.

Ah yes, I can understand the amount you must get. Makes sense to remove!

Trying to figure out how to add special characters in from here. i.e accents, enye, etc. (jalepeno, cafe, decor would be examples of words I'd like to add.) I know how to access on Word, but haven't figured it out here. Thanks!
