MONIKA PUKLI literature makes reference to, and which the informants of the empirical investigation studied in this paper all share. This vowel system consists of nine monophthongs /i H e D a ɔ o u/ and three diphthongs / ai au i/. In the same segmental environment these monophthongs are of the same duration, and no length marks are necessary to distinguish longer or shorter vowels: beat, bit , bate and bet or hat , hut , Vowel length in Scottish English – The Scottish Vowel hot and hoot , for example, differ distinctly in quality but are quite uniform Length Rule from an empirical perspective in quantity. Distinctive pairs in RP, such as cot – caught , ant – aunt or full – fool , are homophonous for Scottish speakers with the ‘basic’ vowel system.

  • Characters for Classical Latin
    Characters for Classical Latin David J. Perry version 13, 2 July 2020 Introduction The purpose of this document is to identify all characters of interest to those who work with Classical Latin, no matter how rare. Epigraphers will want many of these, but I want to collect any character that is needed in any context. Those that are already available in Unicode will be so identified; those that may be available can be debated; and those that are clearly absent and should be proposed can be proposed; and those that are so rare as to be unencodable will be known. If you have any suggestions for additional characters or reactions to the suggestions made here, please email me at [email protected] . No matter how rare, let’s get all possible characters on this list. Version 6 of this document has been updated to reflect the many characters of interest to Latinists encoded as of Unicode version 13.0. Characters are indicated by their Unicode value, a hexadecimal number, and their name printed IN SMALL CAPITALS. Unicode values may be preceded by U+ to set them off from surrounding text. Combining diacritics are printed over a dotted cir- cle ◌ to show that they are intended to be used over a base character. For more basic information about Unicode, see the website of The Unicode Consortium, http://www.unicode.org/ or my book cited below. Please note that abbreviations constructed with lines above or through existing let- ters are not considered separate characters except in unusual circumstances, nor are the space-saving ligatures found in Latin inscriptions unless they have a unique grammatical or phonemic function (which they normally don’t).

  • IPA and French Sounds
    IPA and French Sounds IPA and French Sounds The International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) is now used in all high quality dictionaries to describe “proper” pronunciation. Previous dictionaries used approximations from “native” sounds, but that approach always failed for those people whose regional pronunciation differed from the “standard” used by the dictionary makers. This problem still exists in books that were written with a British audience in mind - they are mostly useless for Americans. The Berlitz phrase books are a particularly clear example of this phenomenon. Only two important problems arise in using the IPA in a dictionary. The first problem concerns only the dictionary maker: the variation in pronunciation in different regions makes it difficult to choose a single example. We are not going to tackle this problem very directly here, except to make some comments about variation in pronunciation of French words. We will favor Parisian pronunciation since this is very common even if not entirely standard. You will be easily understood if you attempt to imitate the Parisian pronunciation. You will almost surely speak with some trace of an American accent, so the minor differences are not critical. Learning to recognize and imitate regional French accents is too advanced to tackle here, and is not necessary unless you are in the acting profession. The second problem with the IPA does concern us here. How do you produce the sounds associated with the various symbols? We will suggest how to do this using a combination of French and American words wherever possible. However, not all French sounds occur in American speech (and vice versa).

Background Version 1.0 of the MUFI recommendation was published electronically and in hard copy on 8 December 2003. It was the result of an almost two-year-long electronic discussion within the Medieval Unicode Font Initiative (http://www.mufi.info), which was established in July 2001 at the International Medi- eval Congress in Leeds. Version 1.0 contained a total of 828 characters, of which 473 characters were selected from various charts in the official part of the Unicode Standard and 355 were located in the Private Use Area. Version 1.0 of the recommendation is compliant with the Unicode Standard version 4.0. Version 2.0 is a major update, published electronically on 22 December 2006. It contains a few corrections of misprints in version 1.0 and 516 additional char- acters (of which 123 are from charts in the official part of the Unicode Standard and 393 are additions to the Private Use Area). There are also 18 characters which have been decommissioned from the Private Use Area due to the fact that they have been included in later versions of the Unicode Standard (and, in one case, because a character has been withdrawn).

Myers 3 Special thanks to my wife, Charlene Scott-Myers, for her guidance and editing skills, her love and laughter (Charlene is the author of “The Shroud of Turin: the Research Continues,” “Screechy,” and “The Journeycake Saga”); to my parents, Jim and Ruth Myers, for passing on to me their weird and wonderful sense of humor (Dad and I are co-authors of “Mr. Brown, A Spirited Story of Friendship” and “Mr. Brown and the Golden Locket”); to Bishop Ronald M. Gilmore, for allowing me a voice in the Southwest Kansas Register, and to Bishop John B. Brungardt, for allowing that voice to continue; to the people of southwest Kansas, who have never tried even once to have me run me out of town (that I know of); to my Lab, Sarah, for helping me realize what’s truly important in life; and, as always, to the Good Lord, who has humbly refused any royalties for this book, should there be any. 4 Forward or more than ten years now, I have watched David My- Fers at work.
