The example below consists of 2 base characters (“今日”), jointly annotated with two levels of annotations: “きょう” and “today”. For ease of comparison, it is preceded by some context text: “例文は”. This test passes if:

• the base characters are presented inline with and similarly to the context text, as if they are all part of the same sentence, and
• each annotation is presented as an annotation, and
• each annotation is jointly associated with the whole base, not just part of it.

Note: This is not a layout or rendering test. The precise appearance is not specified, and implementations may therefore validly vary.
