^  Çç is used only for etymological c in foreign words, else Ss is used: sé see, mís mice.

^  Where /dʒ/ represents etymologic j a dotted ʒ̇ may be used.

^  NB eṡcý eschew. Christian may be spelled kristian or kriṡcan, perhaps kristjan.

^  Zz is used only in foreign words. Ƨƨ is used in both native and foreign words for etymologic s.

The sound /ʒ/ is spelled differently depending on etymology: Áƨja Asia, mèƨýr measure, azýr azure, Ƹƹ: garàƹ.

(Perhaps Zz should be used for all instances of /z/ and Ƹƹ for all instances of /ʒ/?)

The plural and possessive ending is always spelled 'ƨ (bœ'ƨ boy's, boys, boys'‌), and the past tense ending is always spelled 'd (kep'd, skor's, fád'd).

The Ʒ ʒ character

The preferred shape of the letter Ʒ ʒ is not like the IPA ezh, but like the Insular G, ᵹ (\u1D79), the capital version of which however is not adopted in Unicode yet. I use Ʒ ʒ (ezh) provisionally since the capital version of Insular G is not adopted in Unicode yet, and the small letter also is missing from most Unicode fonts. The preferred shape is shown in this image:

It should be noted that in NAS this letter denotes the phoneme /dʒ/ and not the phoneme /ʒ/ which is written as if it were /zj/ or with Ƹƹ.

The ʃ character

In place of SC sc one may use the ʃ character with its IPA value. Note that it should have a descender, unlike the Latin letter Long s ſ, in order to be maximally distinct from f. The preferred capital form is ɾ, like a J turned 180 degrees or an Armenian Ր, in order to distinguish it from the lower-case form, and from capital S. Since this capital form is unavailable in standard fonts the forms  (the Insular capital S) or Ʃ (the 'African' capital ʃ ) may be used, though care should be taken to distinguish  from /Ʒ.

Alternative graphies

Letters with acute diacritics may be replaced with digraphs as follows á > aa, é > ee, í > ij, ó > eo, ú > ou, ý > yy, œ > oe, ů > uo, å > oa.

Þ, þ may be replaced with Th th, SC sc may be replaced with Sh sh or Sj sj and Ʒ ʒ may be replaced with Cg cg or Gj gj.

Alternative vowel glyphs

You need to have Junicode, Cardo or Andron Scriptor Web installed for some of these characters to be seen!

^  This is what the face character should should look like, in case it doesn't show up correctly in the table!

Ɩɩ	kit
Ɛɛ	dress
	trap, father
Ɔɔ	lot
CUcu	thought
Yy	strut
Ee	fleece
ƐƖɛɩ	face
İi	price
Ƣƣ	choice
Uu	foot, goose
( 	goose )
Oo	goat
Ɯɯ	mouth
, 	cute

My preference would be to use ,  for trap and father but ordinary A, a for face (with ƐƖ, ɛɩ as cursive form). In the meantime ,  A, a

as free variants for trap and father and ƐƖ, ɛɩ for face is preferable, since even unligatured ƐƖ ɛɩ is preferable to losing the distinction! Thus although I'd prefer

Fþr n̄ Pcul ʃud bɛtr z þ brɩᵹ ɩf þa wɔnt tu gɛt hom ɩn tim! — Jɛs amz!}}

I'll use

Faþr n̄ Pcul ʃud bɛtr z þ brɩʒ ɩf þɛɩ wɔnt tu gɛt hom ɩn tim! — Jɛs Ʒɛɩmz!

It's all a service to the Anglo terror diacriticorum: if nearly all other languages uses diacritics, then why not English?
