R. A much rougher sound than in
English (like the German0 some
times followed by a "spiritus asper" like
the Greek as then it is very soft.
U. Like the English in full or in
moon.
W. Like the English
Y. Like the English in the beginning
of a word as yet, young.
Dipthongs.
Ae. Ai. Ei. Uo. (oi ui)
The exact sound of these ca easily be described
but [word crossed out] as a general rule applicable to all
the dipthongs it may be observed that before
according to their elementary sound
both letters in quick succession as as [indecipherable]
write them in one sound will approach nearest
the correct pronunciation. Thus ai has a [indecipherable]
or more open sound than i in wide, nice
and ei is not quite so broad as i in wide
Uo sounds like oo in poor or u in sure
Ae like a in age. Au and Ua are of very rare
occurrence.
