I'd say: èlètasiz

Both sound good to me (but it's my second language...I studied it for 7 years): 1) iliètasi 2) ilètasilâ

I'd say: ilèmãje (I think that you meant to write: iemãje)

I'd say what you say, basically, although I'd have /R/ in /parle/ too.

Sounds good to me.

Hm, same except I'd probably have /E/ for your /ie/ Also, if I were doing this I might stick the article on as a prefix, like in Creol. So it'd be: lëparaplyi

Hm, same except for è-ti /Eti/ for your ie-ty. Also, how come you write /y/ both _y_ and _u_ in this example. I'd think it would be _y_ in both cases.

Non, c'est magnifique, tu n'as pas déjà écrité assez! J'aime ta méthode d'orthographe. Bravo! ~ Elliott. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Small Business - Try our new resources site! http://smallbusiness.yahoo.com/resources/
