  • The Brill Typeface User Guide & Complete List of Characters
    The Brill Typeface User Guide & Complete List of Characters Version 2.06, October 31, 2014 Pim Rietbroek Preamble Few typefaces – if any – allow the user to access every Latin character, every IPA character, every diacritic, and to have these combine in a typographically satisfactory manner, in a range of styles (roman, italic, and more); even fewer add full support for Greek, both modern and ancient, with specialised characters that papyrologists and epigraphers need; not to mention coverage of the Slavic languages in the Cyrillic range. The Brill typeface aims to do just that, and to be a tool for all scholars in the humanities; for Brill’s authors and editors; for Brill’s staff and service providers; and finally, for anyone in need of this tool, as long as it is not used for any commercial gain.* There are several fonts in different styles, each of which has the same set of characters as all the others. The Unicode Standard is rigorously adhered to: there is no dependence on the Private Use Area (PUA), as it happens frequently in other fonts with regard to characters carrying rare diacritics or combinations of diacritics. Instead, all alphabetic characters can carry any diacritic or combination of diacritics, even stacked, with automatic correct positioning. This is made possible by the inclusion of all of Unicode’s combining characters and by the application of extensive OpenType Glyph Positioning programming. Credits The Brill fonts are an original design by John Hudson of Tiro Typeworks. Alice Savoie contributed to Brill bold and bold italic. The black-letter (‘Fraktur’) range of characters was made by Karsten Lücke.

Brown Michael Forman Dong Jae Lee © Copyright 2002 by JihaHwang ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Throughout my studies at the University of Hawai'i, I benefited immensely from stimulation provided by the faculty and students, not only in the Department of East Asian Languages and Literatures, but also in the Department of Second Language Studies and the Department ofLinguistics. To all ofthem, I would like to say a collective thank you. There are a few people to whom I would like to express particular gratitude, however. To Dr. Ho Min Sohn, who not only served as my dissertation advisor, but who has been a valuable mentor and a source ofpsychological support throughout my doctoral program and while I was completing the dissertation. To Dr. Dong Jae Lee, whose warm heart, good advice and ceaseless efforts on behalf of students has not only been of great personal support to me, but a source of inspiration in my own professional development and a model which I hope to emulate. To Marilyn Plumlee, without whose help this dissertation would not be here. She was not merely an English proofreader. As a colleague and as a friend, she constantly raised highly provocative questions which helped me to think over again and again what I was trying to do.

  • Translating Symbols
    Translating Symbols The facts of life. Something that is an unfortunate but necessary part of the education of linguists is the translation of equivalent phonetic symbols. (Actually, transliteration would probably be a more accurate term.) There are several traditions within which different symbols have developedto mention just two of the most influential, the International Phonetic Association, with deepest roots in Europe (and the British Isles especially), and a decidedly American tradition, developed by anthropological linguists who worked on the languages of the New World. Our textbook (which has its roots in Canada) has generally opted for the former, often called the International Phonetic Alphabet, or the IPA for short, whereas many Statside linguists use alternate symbols at several points. The Phonetic Symbol Guide published by the University of Chicago Press (by Geoffrey K. Pullum and William A. Ladusaw) in 1986 refers to these respectively as IPA usage and American usage. Complications. This discussion is complicated by esoteric symbols on both sidessymbols that are not on the usual typewriter or computer keyboard, and that therefore are difficult to show on the usual web page or send via email. We will attempt to get around this complication by several routes: 1. On this page, we will use the names for some symbols (and descriptions of them) together with the symbols themselves. Some of these names will be borrowed from the Phonetic Symbol Guide referred to above. 2. For email, we will suggest alternate symbols (or combinations of symbols) that are available on computer keyboards. We also mention, where applicable, a popular usage that is sometimes found in the comics and/ or as phonetic respelling in dictionaries.
