thread_title: Jèrriais Wikipedia

message: I've gone and tried to figure out IPA equivalents for Jèrriais vowels.  I know there's a lot of variety, but I'm trying to get at least a general or "standard" sense.  The following chart is what I've come up with, but I'm not fluent in Jèrriais, and my IPA transcription skills aren't perfect, either, so I'd appreciate corrections if anyone has them:
:A quick check with Spence (1960) and Jones (2001) provides some clarification. Man vyi 12:53, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Mèrcie bein des fais.  None of the sources I used had IPA, so I did some guessing.  I'm actually not familiar with Spence, however.  Which book is that?  Also, where multiple pronunciations are given, such as dialectal variation, which would you recommend for someone learning the language off-island (does one reflect written materials more?  Is one more common?  Is one more accepted by young Jèrriais speakers?  I made this chart for two reasons—for use on Wikipedia, and also to use as a teaching aide.)

replies: text: Also, I notice that you've made some additions, but almost no deletions.  If I've got anything entirely wrong, please remove it from the chart—it's difficult for me to tell if what you've added is another way the grapheme is pronounced, or a correction to what I had.  The Jade Knight 00:14, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Spence's "Glossary of Jersey-French" (1960) is notated completely in IPA. What you had was mostly correct and just needs amplification to cover dialectal variation. I'll add some more tweaks when I have time. Written literature (especially 20th century) is mostly Western (most influentially St Ouënnais, with St Louorenchais and St Pierrais prominent as well). Teaching materials basically use a written form that is a generalised St Ouënnais (for example: méthe but not maiethon), but teachers are free to use pronunciations that are native and natural to themselves. The 2 CD-Roms are voiced by St Ouënnais. (I'm biased towards a Western accent, myself!) Man vyi 06:25, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks.  Mind pointing out which dialects belong where, where it isn't already listed below, as well?  The Jade Knight 06:42, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

text: As sources, I used the pronunciation guide at Les Pages Jèrriaises, Lé Jèrriais Pour Tous, the Dictionnaire Jersiais-Français, and my own perceptions from listening.  The Jade Knight 01:08, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

message: There has been so much confusion over this issue, that I'm tempted to create a section here discussion the ways that Jèrriais is not simply a French dialect.  Would there be support for this?  The Jade Knight (talk) 05:34, 12 March 2008 (UTC)
