I am forwarding the following response to R Wheelock's original posting from Chris Harvey, who has just re-subscribed to this email list.
(Chris worked with Michael Everson on the "Proposal to encode additional Unified Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics" [http://www.unicode.org/L2/L2008/08132r-n3427r-syllabics.pdf], and has long been involved in work on indigenous languages and support for them in keyboards, fonts, etc.) --Debbie Anderson -----Original Message----- From: Chris Harvey [mailto:languageg...@gmail.com] Sent: Monday, July 14, 2014 8:36 PM > There are quite a few missing syllablics characters: > .The character for the syllable lhai (lhe) (like a horizontally > mirrored lhi, or a rotated lha) The dialect that uses /ł/ does not have the ai-series diacritics in the orthography. > .The characters for the entire sp- series (shown on Wikipedia's > article on UCAS as copies of ZESS, Z, N, and Russian Cyrillic > I-OBROTNOYE) The sp-series was never used outside early experimentation with Cree syllabics. No language has ever used them. (Note: In Canada, where syllabics are used, it's spelled Inuit, not Innuit.) Chris --- This email is free from viruses and malware because avast!
