Ardlang follows the "one sound one letter" principle. Some letters can be pronounced in two different ways in order to make the pronunciation easier to the majority of speakers. For example, a Russian or a French speaker would find more natural to pronounce '''j''' as /ʒ/, while an English or an Hindi one would rather choose /ʤ/. Both are equally valid and mutually interchangeable. | Ardlang follows the "one sound one letter" principle.
