That's what you Hongkongers get for using Sinifications that favour nobody but Beijingers! Of course it makes a hell lot more sense if you read it Kuízhárkēyàtèr [kʰweɪ˧˥ ʈʂɑɻ˧˥ kʰɤ˥ ja˥˧ tʰɤɻ˥˩].

This day I have created a new language and have written a hundred words (of my essay)
Does anyone have any information on how verb particles in Maori and Hawaiian came about? By which I mean all the little analytic titbits that express tense and stuff.

I definitely agree with you there Serafin.

[ɛ, æ, ɔ] are also odd choices.

[ɺ] is most typical. [r] is usually only used when people are angry.

actually i hate the other two with equal fervour, mainly because they're unnecessary in almost any context. When are you ever that precise that you know it's that and not the alternative? That's basically the thrust of the argument against. Phonetically human mouths are not that consistent, and it's more accurate to say that whatever /e/ is, it occurs within a phonetic region on a vowel chart or harmonic graph.
Doing it 'my' way was also one of the design goals of the IPA – they didn't necessarily make this clear enough, but that's why there is no symbol for a precisely mid front or back vowel or a precisely central open vowel.
If you use the versions with diacritics I'm gonna want you to back it up with spectrograms... Them's the rules.

Is Christianity an important element in Beowulf?

You don't need a god when you have the greatest leader of the world. Sigûrdo is the name of the current leader and he is the son of Boyevania's founder Boyeos Vabôso. The Boyevanian people idolize this family and they go to temples every week to worship Boyeos. His deeds and his merits are unforgettable

Great-est leader will certainly die. Therefore, he is not God but only a part.

What would a Greek orthography look like for my lang?
Of course he will die but he will have offspring. You know, the conditions are dynastic. The Boyevanian mythology is very extensive so it's like an own religion.
