Well, why did you find *this* inventory of phonemes? Is the goal maximisation of phonemes, or is there a certain logic behind the distribution of the phonemes? I mean, you must have come up with this table somehow. What ideas were you aiming at when you designed this inventory of phonemes? Of course, to comment on your system depends on what you want. E.g. if you want good distinguishability of phonemes, I'd try to find phonemes that are very similar and difficult to distinguish and tell you. OTOH, if the purpose was to create a conlang that is maximally hard to understand with the slightest level of background noise, I'd search for sets of phonemes that are easy to distinguish and would propose to remove or replace some of them. :-) **Henrik
