I read Wikipedia to know the sounds.
I am the founder of this and have rights to incorporate some parts of my ideas even if they are a minority view.
I already said how everything should be read when I said that everything will be phonetical.
Now phonotactics.

You do not have the right to ban anyone. If you don't like these ideas, I could create an offshoot of this thread (but I will not obstinate like you).

Agree. This is a collaborative language; BokaBB does not have the right to get what they want if most others disagree.

Ok, I will try to do it by the end of the day. Is there any way to make versions for each of us that everyone can edit by themselves? That way we can all have our ideas and suggestions.

Can we use my orthography in writing on paper,with the exception that the thing about other J is oriented to the bottom and not up?We can use simplified orthography here.
Someone,please study the Vietnamese phonology and alphabet,that language has lots of weird letters in one keyboard. We may use some.

What j are you talking about? Also, I spent a few minutes trying to pronounce /æ/, /a/, /ä/, and /ɐ/, I think I can pronounce them well. The first two and the latter two sound similar, I think we should all try to pronounce them to see whether we can even hear the difference between them, not only pronounce them. I just want everyone to agree on what sound we are talking about. If we can't hear the difference or don't think it matters too much, we can reach an agreement quicker. What specifically about Vietnamese phonology is interesting?

Fun fact: The above sentence is self-contradictory.

The thing above Ĵ should be oriented to the bottom when writing on paper.

wwei23 wrote: October 25th, 2020, 9:31 pm My thoughts on this ee vs. e thing is that e going to /e/ might be more intuitive, because e would then basically go to itself.

I agree with Hunting, picking symbols for sounds just based on appearance is a bad idea. I have changed my mind on i though, I agree with BokaBB on it being /i/.
Edit: I am filling the vocabulary part of the spreadsheet, but I am omitting words that (to me) sound wrong.
Edit: I think we need to rethink our vocabulary. The words just sound too short and simple. I know BokaBB said that root words should be one syllable, but no language that I know of is like that. Source:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monosyllabic_language

Can it be /a/ at the beginning or at the end of the word or if it borders other vowels and the other a sound in the rest of cases?
