...just to find out that the accent mark gets dropped in 99% of the cases because people are too lazy to write it, don't have a key for it on their PC or don't understand its significance.
I once had a professor with a Greek last name who explained to us that stressing the second syllable of his name (as most English-speaking people do for most words) means you call him a "donkey". So he's in a worse position than you are.
