<p class="MsoPlainText">Hi<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">Wondering if anyone could help?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">I have a book written in the Soviet Union in 1979 and it has phonetic transcriptions of Bartang proverbs and sayings.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">In addition to the usual Cyrillic characters used for Tajik there are some other different characters.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">There are what I would best describe as “w” (could be Omega \u0460) , “=”, “a gamma with an inverted circumflex”, “ a delta” and “o with diaersis”, “I” (Palochka \u04c0) among others.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">These appear to have been hand written onto the original before it was copied, Ammonia dyeline printing perhaps :-)?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">I assume this is a Soviet version of the IPA but could anyone supply and more details as I would like to convert this into IPA.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">Cheers Paul<o:p></o:p></p>
