Thread:User talk:CodeCat/Ogham transliteration

Thanks for adding Ogham transliterations. Just a couple of comments:


 * 1) Ogham transcriptions are canonically written in . (ALL CAPS when small caps are not available.)
 * 2) Where I transcribed a break in an inscription with [···] in Ogham, you might consider transliterating that with "...". (I used a mid-dot to match up with the center line. It's just an ellipsis of elision, and should remain so in transcription. Consider this the typographic OCD in me coming out.)
 * 3) Why did you pick "w" to transliterate ᚃ? Canonically, this is transliterated . (Its name is "fearn, and its phonetic value something like [w], but  is how it usually appears in scholarly works, wikipedia notwithstanding.)
 * 4) Some glyphs do not have a unique transliteration. "ᚕ" (, for example, is 'k' in the older inscriptions, but is the diphthong 'ea' in later and manuscript uses of Ogham. (The very name of the glyph is "eabhadh"). This carries over to others of the  (the "extra" set of letters), which may have variant readings depending on the source.
