From: R. F. Hahn <sassisch at yahoo.com>
Subject: Literature

Dear Lowlanders,

Below please find the first change in version A of the phonetic
"transcription" of the Christmas hymn I sent you.  This particular version
is supposed to be assumed to predate the shift [sx] > [ʃ] (SAMPA [sx] > [S],
written <sch>).  I am not sure if this assumption is justified.

I have amended the PDF files:
U.S. letter size: http://sassisch.net/hemmel-letter.pdf
International A4 size: http://sassisch.net/hemmel-A4.pdf

Regards,
Reinhard/Ron
