Ruby's Greek Thread

[nablator]

What word did you fail to read?

Lots. I don't remember.

Maybe the problem is that we have to guess the rules or read hundreds of posts (if they are all written in your blog posts, I don't know). Some rules may apply only in some contexts. Some rules may take precedence over some other rules. How are we to know if they are not all written down in a single place?

For example two rules found in a random post: You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.
As a "next step" (?) replace:
r/ρ with s/ς
and 
η with αι

So it seems that y not only maps to η or ε at the beginning or ος at the end, but also because of this next step it can be αι.
chedykar = γιτηναρ = γιταινας

That's from a 5 minutes browsing. Any more possibilities for EVA-y that I missed?

403. sheolkeedy (1) – skianu89 – σκιαινιδος,
423. soain (1) – soain – σοαιν
430. sokal (1) – sonai – ζωναι,
471. yteey (28) – 9bu9 – ηβαιος = βαιος – small, little, few, short
472. yteos (3) – 9beos – ηβαιος = βαιος – small, little, few, short

So:
y can be αι
ol can be αι
ai can be αι
al can be αι
ee can be αι
eo can be αι
any more that I missed... ?
