Mielenkiintoista. Kaksi pikkupikku huomautusta vaan: sä oot kirjottanu yhteen kohtaan "paitsi" suomeksi.
- Aajuu, näin muistan jossain välissä huomanneeni. Pistetääns korjaten.
Ja sitten siinä missä lukee mihin eri juttuihin ð muuttui, niin voisi mainita myös ð > j (mutta ehkä sä et laske sitä "tavallisimpien äänteiden" joukkoon?).

- Voishan noista murteista kirjoittaa paljonkin, ei ole tosin ollut kovin korkealle priorisoituna, ajattelin "sivuhaaroista" käsitellä lähisukukieliä ensin. ð → j mennee aika pitkälti ð → ∅:n alle muutenkin (hiatuksenestona).
- Saa tähän artikkeliin tietysti lisäillä kaikenlaista jos haluaa.
- (for English speakers: knock yourself out if you want to cover Finnish dialects or other Finnic languages) --Trɔpʏliʊm • blah 13:19, 28 May 2009 (UTC)
Ahaa, niin mä vähän ajattelinkin. Qwynegold 14:44, 6 June 2009 (UTC)
IPA Zounds
To have some real sound changes to play with, I made an IPA Zounds sc file from this article. It's not ready yet and probably very inaccurate.
- Neat! I've not used IPA Zounds so I can't comment on possible formatting issues etc. The unstress'd vowel changes look like they might need conditioning however? --Trɔpʏliʊm • blah 22:02, 30 September 2009 (UTC)
- That's correct, but stress (and other whole-syllable-properties) is a bit clumsy in Zounds, I'm just looking into the code, maybe I can change how that is dealt with. Then I can use more simple conditions than I would have to use now. -- Anaphory 11:54, 1 October 2009 (UTC)
- Rewritten in sch, seems to work -- Anaphory 02:44, 15 October 2009 (UTC)
