Re: Romanization challenge thread
I probably should've mentioned that æ is the most common vowel and a-umlaut was dropped because it was a pain in the ass to write -- so they replaced it with schwa and as a result the Latin orthography went basically unused for a long time.

Re: Romanization challenge thread
Not really a challenge, more of a question. I have a proto-lang with a palatal and velar obstruents, along with corresponding labialised phonemes (č š vs k x, čw šw vs kw xw). In one daughter lang, velars are palatalised before front vowels (ki > či, kwi > čwi, etc). Then further along, the plain palatals become alveolar, the labio-palatals become retroflex and the labio-velars become plain velars. This, along with some vowel shifts, create the alternations /k~ʈʂ/ and /k~ts/. I want to romanize this in a way that reflects this etymology. For example:
*kʷa > ko "dog"
*kʷɪ > ʈʂa "dogs"
*əka > ko "stone"
*əkɪ > tse "stones"
*kʷa > ko "dog"
*kʷɪ > ʈʂa "dogs"
*əka > ko "stone"
*əkɪ > tse "stones"

Nitpick: if by [r͡ʒː] you mean some variation of Czech ř, then that is not the correct representation, [r̝] is. If you just mean a cluster [rʒː] though, well, by all means go ahead, just drop the tie bar.

There's something like Irish's caol le caol agus leathan le leathan rule going on here. Asterisked forms are leathan (palatalized/slender), their unasterisked counterpartes are caol (broad/plain). <e i> appear as palatalizers and <o a> as palatalizing-blockers, respectively; in cases such as these they are disambiguated from vowels in hiatus with the use of an acute accent over the nucleus if the vowel is short (if it's long there's a circumflex so it doesn't matter).

There's something like Irish's caol le caol agus leathan le leathan rule going on here. Asterisked forms are leathan (palatalized/slender), their unasterisked counterpartes are caol (broad/plain). <e i> appear as palatalizers and <o a> as palatalizing-blockers, respectively; in cases such as these they are disambiguated from vowels in hiatus with the use of an acute accent over the nucleus if the vowel is short (if it's long there's a circumflex so it doesn't matter).

You can tell the same lie a thousand times,
But it never gets any more true,
So close your eyes once more and once more believe
That they all still believe in you.
Just one time.

While I'm happy with the representation of vowels and palatalisation, the initial geminates bug me. The medial and final ones don't though so I suppose for the sake of consistency I should leave them as they are...

Re: Romanization challenge thread
And yours doesn't distinguish /θ ð/ at all, when they are distinguished in the language (teeth - teethe), while carefully distinguishing /s z/ which is close to if not equally as marginally phonemic. If you're just doing alphabet substitution to Cyrillic, ok sure, but that's kinda pointless. Especially since this is the Romanization challenge thread.R.Rusanov wrote:...

Re: Romanization challenge thread
I assume you read the first page a while back and have forgotten itNo point cluttering up C&CQ. (Hellenizations, Oriyizations etc. also go here.)
There's no reason not to use ҫ and ҙ for /θ ð/, I like thita but it has no logical voiced counterpart... ѻ /ʊ/ could also be replaced with ө
