Wp/arn/Appendix:conversion
I thought we could use this page to create accurate conversion details for the script. We can use the discussion page if there are different ideas.
I am using this information to create the first draft: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mapudungun_phonology

Milos suggestion
[edit | edit source]- All ragielo and azumchefi "t" will be translated as "t" in other
orthographies.
- All ragielo "s" will be translated as "s" in other orthographies.
- All nhewenh "sh" will be translated as "s" in other orthographies.
Lin Linao comment
[edit | edit source](Nhewenh 'sh' can be a sh in Unified).
Letter by letter
[edit | edit source]- Raguileo t can be either t or ṯ in Unified alphabet and either t or td in Nhewenh. Maybe the letter t should be transcribed to t? in Unified alphabet and Nhewenh so that other users can then later correct them. And use the same system for the other similar situations.
