The pronunciation of esperanto is indeed perfectly deterministic, and
you actually have a bijection between sounds and letters. But
infortunately, this language is not ascii-encodable, as it uses
specific letters (ĉ, ĝ, ĥ, ĵ, ŝ, ŭ). That being said, they can be
written as ch or cx, which would solve the issue.
