| | Report Submitted to FAMSI - David Bolles |
 | | Because of the ambiguity of whether the second "h" belongs to this consonant or to the following syllable when chh appears in the middle of a word, and because the symbol "ħ" has recently become available again on modern computers, we have decided to return to the use of cħ to eliminate this ambiguity. |  | | However, should a vowel be followed by a consonant in a syllable then it cannot be a clipped vowel but must be either a regular vowel or an elongated vowel. |  | | This is because a vowel which is followed by a consonant cannot by its nature be clipped. |

 | | The Burmese script therfore ultimately derives from Brahmi, and so shares the structural features of its relatives: Consonant symbols include an inherent vowel; various signs are placed before, above, below and after a consonant to indicate a vowel other than the inherent one; ligatures and conjuncts are used to indicate consonant clusters. |  | | Additional signs are placed before, above, below and after the consonants to indicate vowels other than the inherent one. |  | | Consonant clusters are represented by conjunct consonants, where the first consonant of the cluster maintains its full form and succeeding consonants are written as subscripts. |

| | Sk'op Sotz'leb: Chapter 1 |
 | | For example, the division of a sentence into separate words is somewhat arbitrary; some particles (for example, -e, which ends phrases, or -a`a "indeed") do not have an initial <b>glottalb> stop, and always unite with the previous words in the phrase. |  | | All other words are written with an initial <b>glottalb> stop or with another initial consonant. |  | | In these last examples, the hyphen before the <b>glottalb> stop is written to make clear the correct pronunciation -the <b>glottalb> stop follows the non-glottalized consonant, either the result of the use of a prefix, or in a compound word. |

| | Gweydr Phonology |
 | | An example of a word beginning with a "soft" <b>glottalb> fricative is the word ĥaþl, "fog". |  | | Since this class is the most common, and since no word can begin with a vowel phonologically in Gweydr, this class will be marked in the romanization by nothing (for a word that begins with a <b>glottalb> stop), or with an initial h. |  | | This means that when attaching a prefix, the <b>glottalb> consonant detaches, and a prefix that ends with a consonant is attached. |

 | | Moreover, the apostrophe might be used to represent a 27th consonant: the <b>glottalb> stop or alif, which is found in Hebrew, other Middle-Eastern languages, Amerindian tongues, and elsewhere. |  | | We could start with the consonants, which are more straightforward: seventeen of them might as well be the same as in English. |  | | The fundamentals of the problem are twofold: firstly an alphabet which could exist within the existing QWERTY machinery, and secondly an alphabet which could orthographically represent at least 27 consonant phonemes and 18 vowel phonemes. |

| | Confusions of Tongues and a Map - FARMS Review |
 | | Pate does not understand the difficulty of porting the information about the <b>glottalb> stop from one orthographic system to another time and place. |  | | In English it is accidental, but in many languages it functions as a consonant and makes a difference between two words in which one is pronounced with the <b>glottalb> stop and the other without. |  | | The most typical treatment of an initial <b>glottalb> stop would be to leave it off entirely since most of the Spanish fathers did not hear the <b>glottalb> stop when they wrote their grammars and dictionaries. |

| | Interdental consonant : Interdental consonant |
 | | The most commonly occurring interdental consonants appear to be interdental non-sibilant fricatives. |  | | This differs from a dental consonant in that the tip of the tongue is placed between the upper and lower front teeth, and therefore may articulate with both the upper and lower incisors, while a dental consonant is articulated with the tongue against the back of the front incisors. |  | | Interdental consonants are produced by placing the blade of the tongue against the upper incisors. |
