Trying to transcribe English words with the Czech alphabet
Hey guys! Czech is remarkably good at transcribing most English words.
We're making a book where the pronunciations are spelled with the Czech alphabet.
It's not 100% accurate, but it achieves a good balance!
Do you think these are understandable transcriptions?
water - voda - [uotr]
window - okno - [uindou]
sheep - ovce - [šíp]
ship - loď - [šip]
judge - soudce - [džadž]
toy - hračka - [toj]
Appreciate the input and if you don't agree with some of them, please do share!
