Re: [PLS1.0] i18n comment: Problems with 4.5 japanese example

>From Richard Ishida (2006-03-21):

Proposed Classification: Clarification / Typo / Editorial 

Resolution: Accept 

As we will remove the "orthography" attribute, this comment reduces to
the accurate transcription of the 2nd example in Section 4.5 [1]. 

We are looking for experts in IPA for the Japanese language to check the
transcription, or alternately we will change the example to a simpler
one.

Comment: 
There are a number of problems with the use of the orthography attribute
in this example for Japanese:


The kana label is incorrect - it should say hira, since this is
hiragana, not katakana.


There is currently no label available for the extremely common form of
Japanese words that mixes both kanji and hiragana, eg. f77c
c
 'to mix' (contains one kanji and two hiragana characters).


Is nI*hIE
I an accurate phonemic/phonetic transcription?
