Alternative vowels
Cabellian
My pronunciation clearly distinguishes the two vowels in under. I'm happy to see the alternative reverse "c" for these sounds. It makes sense for me always to use this alterative for the vowel sound in up, and always to use regular symbol for the schwa. You miss some of the joins this way, but it better keeps the one to one relationship between sound and symbol for my Canadian-influenced British accent. Any comment?
Shavian.info
Shavian has the letter Up, 𐑳, for this sound. It was removed in Quikscript, presumably because many accents don’t distinguish the STRUT and commA vowels other than by stress. You could, however, always use the Shavian letter.
