[snip] Hmm, talking about changing things I don't want to... after skimming over the recent threads about phonetics/phonology (what's the diff again? :-P), I have this feeling that perhaps I've totally messed up my conlang's phonology, and need to completely rework it. The only problem is, so many things are already based on the existing system that it's going to be very hard to make any major changes. But ultimately, I may not really have a choice, since the current system is quite awkward and has a lot of pronunciation problems in places. T -- The diminished 7th chord is the most flexible and fear-instilling chord. Use it often, use it unsparingly, to subdue your listeners into submission!
