Use of U+0347 #321

Open bambooforest opened 4 years ago

Pasted from:

In an early version of the feature set, we noted that U+0347 would indicate [-strident] and that it should only be applied to [+coronal] sounds.

The affected segments occur only in SPA and UPSID, in a handful of overlapping inventories (13 languages in total) and appear in these segments:

ʂ͇ ʃ͇ ts͇ ts͇ʰ ʈʂ͇ z͇ z̪͇|z͇ ʐ͇ ʒ͇

The rest are from two languages in EA, including ð͇, which are a bug that got through the PHOIBLE parser:

2533 ersu1241 Ersu d͇z͇ 2533 ersu1241 Ersu nd͇z͇ 2533 ersu1241 Ersu nt͇s͇ʰ 2533 ersu1241 Ersu s͇ 2533 ersu1241 Ersu t͇s͇ 2533 ersu1241 Ersu t͇s͇ʰ 2533 ersu1241 Ersu z͇ 2592 tosk1239 Tosk Albanian ð͇ˠ

Where they indicate alveolar:

And what looks like a duplicated dental / alveolar fricative (ð͇):

We can't use the same symbol for different meanings, so perhaps we should change the former to something else or change the latter in the EA mapping file.

JIPA actually uses dots below:

So that's not much help.
