Re: How to design a non-European phonology
The crap I just posted in the romanization thread: 1. Absence of any phonemic POA for stops further back than velar [half mark for only one stop-POA behind velar, or for prominent allophonic stops behind velar] 2. Phonemic voicing 3. Voicing distinction in stops and fricatives, and no other MoA 4. V...

A good magician can cause a lightning bolt to strike a particular target during a thunderstorm; but he can't do so out of a clear blue sky. This restriction strikes me as completely arbitrary. If magic can do what would be unlikely to happen without it, why can't a magician, apart from not being go...

Why, it's obviously a language that is the preimage of a subset of a finite monoid under a homomorphism from the free monoid on its alphabet.CaesarVincens wrote:What's a "regular" language?
