Glottal stop?

The glottal stop (ʔ) indicates that there is a full stop between vowels. In the "Naujan" page, the respelling appears to be "{{Respell|naʔ|OO|han}}." Is the glottal stop optional for the respelling key, or remove the "ʔ" symbol? BIG DADDY Dunkleosteus (talk) 07:20, 27 January 2025 (UTC)

:No respelling should be given in the first place since it's not preceded by a transcription of English. Nardog (talk) 11:05, 27 January 2025 (UTC)

/ɜːɹ/ is inappropriate

there is underlying /ɜ/ in English. Plus I pronounce the vowel in "bird" the same as "letter", which is listed under as /əɹ/

class="wikitable sortable"

|ur

|

|bird, furry

|/ɜːɹ/

class="wikitable sortable"

|ər

|

|letter

|/əɹ/

I would delete this column, but I'm sure there are many articles which use the ur spelling. SasquatchRF (talk) 04:57, 9 April 2025 (UTC)
