[suggestion] phonology change

[SpartanCreeper]

The phonology changes below should be made. This will open up the possibility of creating a per-PoS word generator (individual rules saved for each PoS) and a button to generate words automatically when adding words to the lexicon based on PoS.

ORIGINAL TEXT the current system is quite confusing and i dont understand it, the best way i see is to have a chart maker tool in it which allows u to make phonology charts, then theres a phonotactics collumn which allows u to add phonotactics in a similar way to other list making things

Thank you for making a ticket with a suggestion!

I'm having a little trouble envisioning what you mean here. Are there images of what you're envisioning? I do need to rework some of this to make it easier overall, and a visual tool might be just the thing to help.

I think they mean the possibility of the phonology fields being the form of a table similar to the IPA

srr for the late reply, but here is what i meant trapinch was right that id like to be able to create phonology charts like the image below and a list of phonotactics, which u could add things similar to this:

and maybe in the far future u could create an automatic word generator, which reads the chart and phonotactics (which then should be written in the regex) and then in the word generator change the settings so it can instantly create words, but that seems pretty hard to do so i see that as something for the far future

Ok, I see what you're going for here! I could have this chart populate based on what phonological rules are set up already (mapping characters to IPA in the existing menu). I could pretty easily integrate that with the word generator... and then set the word generator up to allow for generation settings per part of speech.

From there... I could just add a generate word button to the lexicon which would let you create a word for any given part of speech.

Hot damn, I am getting good ideas from this! :3
