##Implemented nth- ##
:nth-letter

## Implemented last-##
:last-word
:last-letter

## Implemented first- ##
:first-word (faster than :nth-word(1))


## Things that work ##

Add a hover effet to each odd letter
  .className:nth-letter(odd):hover{}


Add a hover effect to :before/:after
  .className:nth-letter(odd):hover:after{}



## Things that don't and will not work ##
.className:before:nth-letter
