  • A Revised (Q1vayzd), more organized (and hopefully intuitive) version of English Phonotype. Started mostly from the ground up, so some letters may appear like ones in the old version.

    List of all letter keys and their respective sounds, with demonstrations in English words:

    Key A: a - “call,” “Saul,” “ought,” “awe,” “pot”

    Key B: b - “blue”

    Key C: tʃ - “choose”

    Key D: d - “do”

    Key E: e - “age,” “eight”

    Key F: f - “fine,” “photo”

    Key G: g - “goal”

    Key H: h - “hello”

    Key I: i - “eat,” "evil," “eek”

    Key J: dʒ - “jeans,” “genes”

    Key K: k - “call,” “kale,” “chasm”

    Key L: l - “left”

    Key M: m - “me”         !!!no longer resembles N to avoid confusion

    Key N: n - “new,” “knew,” “gnu”    !!!same story as M

    Key O: o - “open,” “au jus”

    Key P: p - “pass”

    Key Q: ɹ̠ - “red”

    Key R: ɚ - “urge”

    Key S: s - “sell,” “cell”

    Key T: t - “Tuesday”

    Key U: u - “ooze,” “tomb,” “uber,” "grew," “you,” “shoe

    Key V: v - “very”

    Key W: w - “walk”

    Key X: ʒ - “measure,” “azure”

    Key Y: j - “yew”

    Key Z: z - “zoo,” “xenon,” “bees

    Key `: ɾ - “metal,” “medal” 

    Key 1: ɪ - “in”

    Key 2: ə - “under," “touch,” “amid”

    Key 3: ʊ - “look”

    Key 4: ɛ - “elf”

    Key 5: ŋ - “thing,” “think”

    Key 6: æ - “ash”

    Key 7: ɛə (raised æ) - “ankle” (note: I pronounce this as one sound, but the IPA has no one corresponding symbol. It lies between æ and ɛ.)

    Key 8: ʃ - “shape”

    Key 9: θ - “thorn”

    Key 0: ð - “those”

    Key -: ʔ - “uh-oh,” “hat

    Numbers have been displaced (which is a feature common to all English Phonotype fonts I have made, but never mentioned until now) from the number keys, seeing as there are letters there now. In order from 0 to 9, the way to type the digits is as follows: 

    =: 0

    +: 1

    [: 2

    {: 3

    ]: 4

    }: 5

    \: 6

    |: 7

    <: 8

    >: 9

    The previous iteration of English Phonotype featured symbols for “and” and “the,” both simple words with different pronunciations depending on the context. I would have included more if the entire keyboard were not filled up. Now that ɾ has taken over the ` key, however, these two have been moved to the accented As and given some company in the form of “or.” They also now have upper and lowercase forms.

    À/à - And

    Á/á - The

    Â/â - Or

A new pangram! Now including ɾ. It reads: “Stupid beige water threw my Cheshire angle hat into those fake veggies.”
