Transliteration-related information

[ReneZ]

While there are basic Eva and extended Eva, the Eva used in Takashi Takahashi's transliteration is neither.
It looks like basic Eva, but it includes a number of character combinations that belong to extended Eva, but are not written according to its rules.

For people who care about details, and being able to double-check results, here are the specifics.
The following list shows character sequences that exist in a number of transliteration files, followed by the correct syntax according to extended Eva:

cfhh    {cfhh}
ckhh    {ckhh}
ckhhh   {ckhhh}
co      {co}
cy      {cy}
cphh    {cphh}
cthh    {cthh}
cthhh   {cthhh}
ih      {ih}
oh      {oh}

To remove uncertainties, this variant of Eva is now identified in transliteration files at my site as "EvaT" instead of "Eva-". These codes are found in the header records of IVTFF formatted files, You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. .
Corresponding bitrans tables are:
Teva.bit        (to convert Eva-T to extended Eva, and back)
IS16-Teva_def.bit   (to convert STA to Eva-T, and back)

This form of Eva is also found in the much-used web site: You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view..

Note that the text used at this web site is now also available as an IVTFF formatted file, through the link already provided above. This file is called VT_ivtff_0c.txt and is at beta level.

Finally, this form of Eva is also used in the interlinear file.
