A quick glance. You talk about the "three nasal sounds". What about "en"?

You give "in" as like a nasal "e grave". But elsewhere you give "e grave" as the "e" in English "set", while "in" is as English "an". These are different vowel sounds.

may not the only reason --> may not be the only reason

Use a capital E for Entry every time.

"Not all of these have an effect on a vowel's pronunciation" -- this would be better as "on the vowel's pronunciation"

I'll try and give it a detailed run through later.

I posted this to the new thread, but since I don't know if any of you are subscribed there, I thought I'd post it here as well.

I don't remember the first thing about French pronunciation, and the tables are making my head spin. Jack Naples appears to be several months gone. Does anyone know:

If this is ready to be updated?
How much needs to be done to update it?
If there is anyone else that can make the necessary changes so that it's ready to be updated?
