Old Georgian IPA[edit]

@Solarkoid do you have any source for the IPA? BTW, IPA between [] should be very precise more than that between //'s. Dixtosa (talk) 19:18, 31 October 2020 (UTC)Reply

@Dixtosa Akaki Shanidze's ძველი ქართული ენის გრამატიკა paragraphs 11, 13, 14 on phonology (He explains the names of each letter) and phonetic table; stress in Old and Modern Georgian. I know what phonetic and phonemic transcriptions are and what the differences are, right now I'm sure the phonetic transcription is fine unless someone proves me wrong. I even went and included a syllable. Georgian was developed to be more free to speak. Syllables are ways to pronounce things easier in Georgian, thus Old Georgian SYLLABLES shouldn't differ much from the new ones, maybe with harmonic clusters but otherwise imo everythings fine. on the places and manners of articulation, it's easy to guess which IPA symbol he is talking about, and by pronouncing, you can essentially tell that no inner sound change occured. For things like ყ, ჩ, ც, ა... It may be difficult but for these letters used here, it's not. -Solarkoid (talk) 20:10, 31 October 2020 (UTC)Reply
