Spelling

Since this is a reference page, would it be better to provide the same spellings as Cyan's original tweets? Talashar (talk) 02:17, 14 January 2024 (UTC)

I'm not an authority on the matter but I expect it would be. As far as I'm aware, Cyan typically give spellings that are in accordance with the Old Transliteration Standard, though they have been known to deviate (e.g. Tomahna instead of Tomahnah). In this case, which spellings are deviating?

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 I as capital I rather than ai. But there are also occasional typos, and in 2019 /ɹ/ was erroneously used for D'ni r. --Talashar (talk) 02:06, 15 January 2024 (UTC)
