Hi Fiete, hi all

<<<I aspect it to be dangerous to use the phonetic
kind
of writing in my special situation: I don't know any
longer anything about phonetical writing since my
school days (about 30 years ago); where to learn it
(again)?<<<

Maybe the SAMPA system can be of any help too:

"SAMPA (Speech Assessment Methods Phonetic Alphabet)
is a machine-readable phonetic alphabet. [snip]
Unless and until ISO 10646/Unicode is implemented
internationally, SAMPA and the proposed X-SAMPA
(Extended SAMPA) constitute the best international
collaborative basis for a standard machine-readable
encoding of phonetic notation."
