Unofficial; it is recognized by some Esperantists on the Internet. Usage is not recommended where the accusative suffix is possible (on nouns and adjectives), but where it is not: numerals (unu (“one”)), particles (iom (“some”), ties (“that one's”)), letters (J), titles of books, and quotations. More standard options are to use the general preposition je, to omit the accusative ending, or to rephrase the sentence to avoid the issue.
