::They aren't drastically different. A couple examples are the use of ligatures (ʧ) rather than ties (t͡ʃ) for affricates in the IPA and the transcription of <dni>I</dni> as capital I rather than ai. But there are also occasional typos, and in 2019 /ɹ/ was erroneously used for D'ni r. --[[User:Talashar|Talashar]] ([[User talk:Talashar|talk]]) 02:06, 15 January 2024 (UTC) | ::They aren't drastically different.

::: In the case of the IPA, [https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%CA%A7 apparently] ʧ was the standard before it was superceded by t͡ʃ, so I'd consider them to be semantically identical. It may be worth including the former verbatim on this page just to record it as accurately as possible, but the dictionary entry should likely stick to the same standard to avoid confusion. I'm not sure if the use of 'I' over 'ai' was intentional or not, but I think the same principle should apply - verbatim here in the reference, but the standard form in the dictionary. | ::: In the case of the IPA, [https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%CA%A7 apparently] ʧ was the standard before it was superceded by t͡ʃ, so I'd consider them to be semantically identical.

:::: It's funny because Atrus could be argued to not be a native speaker, or at least fluent in speaking, Yeesha too but with a bit more fluency, and Esher has a [[Reference:RAWA/DRC_forum_posts#Esher.27s_accent|speech impediment]] – so the loophole is that we don't really have a accurate, accent-neutral recording of spoken D'ni :) --[[User:Korovev|Korovev]] ([[User talk:Korovev|talk]]) 09:04, 17 January 2024 (UTC) | :::: It's funny because Atrus could be argued to not be a native speaker, or at least fluent in speaking, Yeesha too but with a bit more fluency, and Esher has a [[Reference:RAWA/DRC_forum_posts#Esher.27s_accent|speech impediment]] – so the loophole is that we don't really have a accurate, accent-neutral recording of spoken D'ni :) --[[User:Korovev|Korovev]] ([[User talk:Korovev|talk]]) 09:04, 17 January 2024 (UTC) | ||
: On the technical limitations side, I used the Archivist spelling because it's needed for the ''Parsed D'ni'' tag to work correctly. A simple link to the dictionary entry could be used, but without the tag I think the dictionary would not be able to pick up this page as a source for that entry. --[[User:Korovev|Korovev]] ([[User talk:Korovev|talk]]) 08:53, 17 January 2024 (UTC) | : On the technical limitations side, I used the Archivist spelling because it's needed for the ''Parsed D'ni'' tag to work correctly.
