By "ae" I suppose you mean the /eI/ of "Gael"[1] and not the /i/ of "Caesar" (or
the /aI/ of "Caesar" either, for that matter).

What's "ooh" meant to represent?  The /U/ of 'book' or the /u/ of 'boo'/'moon'?

[1] Side note.  I think my speech may have [E] instead of [e] in /eI/.  Am I
horribly misreading myself, or is that common?
