Thanx for reminding me, I needa redo the Tech relay, with capital letters marking specific letters (S = Coptic shi, dZ = janja), while quotes are "hard" consonant markers as well as glottal stop indicators... Baikkin l'eï'dZound, aïhaiddabbi'ïf konberseiSennwith b'eï'iggarsia'abaou'de'aïddia'efefonoladZikel i'ïl"eï. Now this should work 90% of the way. (I still have trouble with how to mark hard consonants before front vowels and especially the "hard" y-sound which is a retroflex rhotic approximant, see my earlier post.)
