I see it as an American dialect, something like:
/fr\str\pr\Znstr\dZnzbr\n?nr\dzmr\mr\?r\tr\4lz/
although what a "murmurer turtle" actually is, is left as an exercise for
the reader...
This whole mess is starting to make me wonder whether I ought to include
some syllabic consonants in Br'ga, and has in fact made me want to do a
post on the state of Br'ga phonology. I may just do that, after
considering the syllabic consonant question...
