Capital H in transcription
[edit]@Mårtensås Instead of
{{l|gmq-pro|ᚺᛡᚦᚢᚹᛟᛚᛡᚠᛦ|ts=Haþuwolᵃfʀ}}= ᚺᛡᚦᚢᚹᛟᛚᛡᚠᛦ (hᴀþuwolᴀfʀ /Haþuwolᵃfʀ/)
, shouldn't we do
{{l|gmq-pro|^ᚺᛡᚦᚢᚹᛟᛚᛡᚠᛦ|ts=haþuwolᵃfʀ}}= ᚺᛡᚦᚢᚹᛟᛚᛡᚠᛦ (Hᴀþuwolᴀfʀ /haþuwolᵃfʀ/)

- Runic letters are always transliterated as small. It's convention only to use capitalization for rarer runes, in this case ᛡ (ᴀ) and ᛦ (ʀ). However the normalization (that is between the slashes) has a capital since this is a proper name. ᛙᛆᚱᛐᛁᚿᛌᛆᛌ ᛭ Proto-Norsing ᛭ Ask me anything 19:11, 23 May 2023 (UTC)
- @Mårtensås I see, though "normalization" has /ʀ/ as well as far as I see, and per T:link/documentation
|ts=should address pronunciation, which would make this case mean that /H/ would be a separate sound from /h/. Maybe we should ditch the capital in both places? "Proper noun" is already in the L3. Catonif (talk) 19:22, 23 May 2023 (UTC)
