Pronunciation of the Fairy Language

 

For those who speak a Germanic language, the pronunciation is easier. It is as though you are reading German, with the exception of the "v". The syllables are pronounced with equal value: "Ba-ra-vek", for example, has equal emphasis on every syllable.

 

Pronunciation:
a - as in pardon
e - as in beckon
o - as in border
u - as in true
ch - as in the German, "buch" (or "kh")
ee - as in please
aa - as in spa
v - as in Victor
sh - as in ship
w - as in wide

 

They don't use percentages; the percentage is seen in the mind as a partial apple or other object like a pie. The fairy language has no past or future tense, since only the moment exists.
