Re: Romanization challenge thread
Not sure about the point in highlighting the palatalized/dental of the coronal series, does it affect the vowels? From what I see, as opposed to the velars, It doesn't contrast and therefore mind as well be /tʰ t/.Greyhawthorn wrote:/pʰ p t̪ʲʰ t̪ʲ kʲʰ kʲ kʰ k/
<p b t d c j k g> . . . no need for <ph p tyh ty kyh ky kh k>

Notes:
Vr sequences can be analysed as diphthongs, due to their presence in the ablaut paradigm (cf. a common alteration of e~a~ar)
Final non-low vowels are always long (ie. /i: e: u: o:/), but low vowels only unround if they are rounded.
The pairs j~ɥ and ɰ~w are only contrastive before a diphthong or before a word-final vowel
Pre-vocalic unvoiced stops are always aspirated. The two sets of unvoiced stops contrast only in coda position, but not word-finally
Only /p t k b d g f θ s ɬ v ð m n ŋ r/ can end words (out of the consonants)
I think that's it.

The <i> or <u> carrying the grave accent was unpronounced.

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.

Re: Romanization challenge thread
I'm running a bit up against a wall with the romanisation of a new thing I've started (can you tell it takes inspiration from the Salish languages?) and I thought I'd give you all a shot. Basically, because of the sometimes horrifying clusters, I'm trying to avoid di- or trigraphs when possible. Anyway...have fun, I guess? Aspirates are going to just be digraphs, because otherwise it would be more unmanagable than it already is. Same with prenasalised consonants.
