Glastonbury University Transcription System

The Glastonbury University Transcription System (GUTS)' is a romanization system for the Albic languages, developed (intrafictionally) by linguists of Glastonbury University (extrafictionally) by Jörg Rhiemeier. The purpose of this system is to provide transcription symbols from which an orthography for each language can be created.
