...or, alternatively, using the 10 basic vowel sounds of the English language (a1, a2, a3, e1, e2, i1, i2, o, u1, u2, short to long and '-' for a rest between letters and '--' for a rest between words, a1 = 0), a2, i1 - a2, e2 - i1 -- e1 - a2 - a2, e2 -- a2, u2 - u2 - a2, u2 - o -- u2 - a3, a1 -- a2, a3 - u2 - a2, a1 - i2 -- a2 -- a2, a1 - a2 - a3, i2 - a3, i2 -- a2, i2 - u2 - i2 - i2....

... or even just using nearly 'all' the (20) basic vowels sounds of standard English:
I e { Q V U @ i: eI aI OI u: @U aU 3: A: O: I@ e@ U@

See here for some illumination:

To quote SuperFrenchie using SAMPA for the vowels (phonetically):

" @Uk PrQf hI@r3: A:r sVm Qf maIn3: ..."

a bit of a misquote Super, but i hope it's true to the sprirt of the message

seems like you actually need to use something like SAMPA if you want to start using or tyalking about IPA phonetc alphabet.


Right thats the end of my spam!

eh!

Just bonk me on t' head with thy yorkshire pudding if i start again!!

wouldn't do that to a mate
some of my threads aren't meant to bring "normal" stuff/replies

Hey! You think i'm not normal!
