Re: THEORY: Sandhi

Cheng Zhong Su: "It seemed no rules to apply the phonteic system for
mandarin language, some one beleive there are, but when you find in fact all
the 1200 different phonetic typse were separate individuals, you may
understand they can combined each other without any limit. In English artcle
'a' in front of a vowel has to be changed as 'an' but in mandarine, you
don't need change any thing. As for hard to learn, it will depend on what we
want. If we want knowing more in life time, we has to detect more
information in every single oral actions. If we just want deal with everyday
life, then the Phoenician language shall be the best choice, for it even
regardless vowels. In this issue, it may be no free lunch. After all, when
we used to the system, it want be a hard job, some tone language children
even don't know what is a 'tone'."
