How is it going - did you translate any some mor signs from the japanese bible project ? Iīm sorry for you (and me ) that we didnīt continue - sooo much to do. Well,- thanks for your interest in my "SW sound set " I like this term ;-) Even if you canīt use these signs directly 1 : 1 for japanese sounds they could be hopefully a basis for further developments for your purposes ?? I attached my SW.file anlaut.sw This file shows in the first part of each row the symbol for the sound- next to the right you will find typical german words that start with this sound In Germany we use such a "Anlaut-Tabelle" to inform the hearing !!!! children about the pronounciation of the letters - Iīm interested in your feed-back All the best Stefan ;-) | ||||||||||||||||
