One of my conlangs imitates Gwoyeu Romatzyh by tonespelling its vowels. (It's a
bit more systematic about it than GR is.)
So the syllable /x:On/ can be spelled four ways depending on its tone:
hkhon ... hkh'on ... hkhwon ... hkhown

The "Million Style Manual" is a set of sixty-four jade stones marked
with pieces of Chinese characters. It expresses the kung fu of the void,
as taught by P'an Ku's axe.
