Confusing Error Message

[Benausert]

So I was trying to apply a simple sound change, and I have tested this with multiple sound changes. The error message that I get is: " => " doesn't make sense in the line "l => j / $ @consonant _" (line 14) I'm confused as to why it's having trouble with its own divider.

[def-gthill]

So the expression itself, l => j / $ @consonant _, works when I try it. Can you show me the full rule that this expression is in, including the rule name?

[def-gthill]

Any update on this? I can't help if I can't reproduce the problem.

[Benausert]

Sorry. Didn't see the first message. Unfortunately I can't seem to find the file with the proper syntax. I think I had rewritten everything for sca2. I think I might have gotten rid of the file, but I'm pretty sure I was just alternating every second sound change of Italian and Spanish from Vulgar Latin, using this. This should be all of the sound changes in the original, incompatible source syntax: r → ∅ / aju# {tj,kj} {tːj,kːj,ptj,ktj,skj} → ts tːs {t,k} → ∅ / # au → u / #_ V → ∅ / {r,l}_C when unstressed and not at a word boundary k ɡ → tʃ dʒ / _E V → ∅ / s_C when unstressed and not at a word boundary (sporadic) kt → tː ɡ → ∅ / a_V pt {ɾs,ps} → tː sː j → dʒ / VV mb mn → mː nː ɔ → uo / stressed ! j or {dʒ,L} bj → ʝː (sporadic) l → j / #C — e → i / Cj !

[def-gthill]

Without the original file I can't help, sorry!

[Benausert]

Understandable. Thanks for trying.

I've got "" => " doesn't make sense in the line "({aː, eː, iː, ɨː, oː, uː} => {a, e, i, u, o, w} / $, {b, d, g, {@F !ɬ}" (line 175)"

@JaOszka Why does your line start with (?

[JaOszka]

It's in Romanizer

@JaOszka Why do you think you need a line starting with ( in a romanizer?

[JaOszka]

I'll just give you the file, okay?

Now it's "", " doesn't make sense in the line "{a, e, i, ɨ, o, u} => {a, e, i, u, o, w} / {p, t, k, ŋ}, @C @C" (line 174)"

The next line has the same problems. Put braces around the list of environments, put an arrow in the expression after the Else:.
