These pronounciations don't use any of those weird standard pronounciation conventions, so you are still likely to make lots of mistakes as there is lots of ambiguity. It's best to look at both the pronounciation and the actual word when deciding how to say something.

Previously, I had changed the pronounciation of one of the words. The word auch (give) was changed to pitauch, to remove confusion, because the words for give and want are the same. However, this new spelling just didn't fit in, and I have now changed it to the following:

Both give and want are spelt 'auch'. If you want to know which meaning is intended when 'auch' is used, to should look at the layout of the sentence.
For example:
Nowgue auch mumgugue ellioid - Means 'You give me idea'
Nowgue auch ellioid mumgugue - Means 'You want idea me' (You want my idea)

You may have noticed that some words do not have meanings assigned to them. Some of them do not even have an actual word assigned to them - they just consist of an original Captain Blood meaning (for example, 'oorxx'). Words with just an original meaning correspond to words that in my experience are never actually used in Captain Blood. It is hard to write down a word when you don't know what it sounds like. As for the words with no meanings assigned to them (for example, 'ki' or 'hunktd'), it's just because I haven't actually ever got round to thinking of something for them to mean...

A few words (such as aayott) have two meanings assigned to them. For example, aayott means either 'Number' or 'Duplicate'. This is because there were two versions of the game, which had a few words changed between them. Normally, aayott should mean 'Number', but if you need to, don't hesitate to use it to mean 'Duplicate'.

Three words which are very easy to get mixed up are: Mbit (money), Bmit (babe) and Mit (impossible).
