* p pz t tz c cz for /b b' d d' g g'/ and pp ppz tt ttz cc ccz for /p p' t t' k k'/
z works like the Cyrillic soft sign
ch chz th for /x ç h/

* schwa is
** word finally: nonpalatalizing ''æ'', palatalizing ''e''
** otherwise: nonpalatalizing ''a'', palatalizing ''ı''
**more irregular in short function words where it's often ''o''
i is only used in i/in 'in' or in the digraph ij, the definite article an is written ın
== Crackfic Irta orthography ==
* macron below = "dagesh"
* caron below = voiced, non-lenited

* inverted breve above = broad (after i or í)
* vertical line above = slender (after i or í)

Sa bhliain d’aoís an Tighearna míle sé chéad a dó do briseadh cath ar Ghaedhlaibh agus ar an dá Aodh, Aodh ua Néill agus Aodh Ruadh ua Dómhnaill, i n‑aice Chionntsáile.
Bhí naoi mbliana caithte an uair sin ag muíntir na h‑Éirean ag troid go dian i gcoinnibh a namhad ar son na h‑Éirean agus ar son an chreidimh, agus i gcaitheamh na naoi mblian san do rugadar buadh ar na Gallaibh ins gach cath trom d’ár buaileadh eatartha go dtí an briseadh sin Chionntsáile.
Do loit an t‑aon bhriseadh amháin sin buadh na naoi mblian, agus bhí Éire fé chosaibh a namhad airís.
