Re: Betreft: Re: Initial clusters, was: Re: Russian orthography

If we allow for syllabic resonants (note that all my Slavonic examples
in the previous posts were about non-syllabic consonants), I can add
a lot.

The funniest example I recall: in an entomological book written in
Slovak, a fly had the Slovak species-name

_s^tvrt'skvrnná _

- 'four-striped' (calquing the Latin species-name - _quadristriata_ or
something). Syllable-by-syllable:

s^tvrt'-skvrn-ná

- stress on the first _r_; s^ for s-hacek [S], _t'_ denotes palatal
stop (= hungarian _ty_); acute denotes vowel length.
