[...] Ebisédian: [,?@\bi's@\:dj@n] Or, the native name, _ni 3bis33'di d3 3t3mii'_: [ni ?@\bi's@\:di d@\ ?@\t@\'mi:] Tamahí: [tama'hi] Tatari Faran: [ta'ta4i fa,4an] Also, some errata: 'maggelity' is named after Christophe Grandsire's conlang, Maggel, which sports an orthography that has a completely counterintuitive correspondence with actual pronunciation. I think the original word was an adjective, maggelitous or maggelitinous. (I may have coined the latter. :-P) IIRC, Etabnannery was also named after someone's conlang, but I forgot whose.
