Anonymous User asked: do you have a reference guide for folks who don't know how to read the Comanche characters? I love these language chosts but I haven't seen these letters before so I don't know how to pronounce it properly
The vowels are pretty similar to Spanish, but the ʉ is pronounced like uh (more or less). Doubled vowels are held for longer but otherwise pronounced the same. There are also underlined vowels that are silent in Comanche.
The ʔ is a sudden stop like in uh-oh.
b sounds like v but a little softer. k sounds like g but a little harder. p sounds kind of like b in English. r is kind of like d. The rest of the consonents are pronounced the same as you'd expect.
