Problems: | The Nenaya list is the most error-prone: "the words were mostly approximately correct but were lacking some phonetic details, in particular sequences like (a?a] had been reduced to [a]. Unfortunately, before I completed checking the data, I was reminded that time and tide wait for no man, and I was obliged to board the canoe for Roinji rather than abuse the generosity of my hosts." | |
