in reply to a message by Silver
Ok, I hope you aren't getting tired of my incessant questions, if you are, just say, and ill stop
Ok first I don't know what you mean by the vowel "short A"
and I think ay and eh make the same sounds, unless ur thinking the ay to make an i sound
I have a lot more vowels then you do, and i was curious if you want to cross reference
When you say these sounds do not have a voiced or unvoiced form, you mean that when whispered, and when spoken u get the same sound, right?
Also i was wondering if u wanted to add the guteral French r to ur list.
I didnt understand your last comment concering the w and wh sound.
Do you have some english examples so I can understand the difference.
I am sorry to be redundant, and i am just making sure... but the Spanish sounds ñ and ll are just n+y and l+y and are not needed?
because in ur last response i thought u said as much, but in ur chart the ll leter does show up
Thats all for now
Ty again

ñ and ll are not needed, just like our English q and x.
wh = what, why, where, when, which. NOT who, whom, whose, whole, whore.
w = was, were, witch, war, west, win.

Right.
eh in set, bet, debt, yet, tell, less. ay in hay, say, weight, wait, date, hate. These sounds are similar, but there is a difference, too.
I've deleted a lot of vowels from my list, because to me: ay = eh-ee, i = ah-ee; oi/oy = oh-ee, ow/ou = ah-oo, etc. But I would like to cross reference on that.
Short a in hat, dad, staff, half, task, bath, swag.
Guttural French r...Yes, probably, but I've no idea what it sounds like. :(
That's not in order, but I think I've answered all your questions. Oh, yes, don't worry about asking me; it makes me feel really grown-up and mature to tell an older person something new! ;P :D Y :)
