nimi "Pewi"o ante

ilo Siko pi lipu "sona pona" la mi toki e ni:

In Faroese:

place name: Føroyar /ˈfœɹjaɹ/ (with the -ar part changing in conjugations)

language name: føroyskt /ˈføːɹɪst/

adjective: føroyskur /ˈføːɹɪskʊɹ/ (with the -ur part changing in conjugations)

demonym: føroyingur /ˈføːɹɪŋkʊɹ/ (with the -ur part changing in conjugations)

/ˈføːɹɪ ~ ˈfœɹj/ seems to be the common element there, so I think "Pewi" might be the best tokiponization. (pu-style tokiponization ignores vowel roundness, so [ø ~ œ] becomes /e/). "Pewi" also corresponds to the full word føroyskt.

tan nimi ale ni pi toki Pewi la mi pilin e ni: nimi "Powija" li pona lili; nimi "Pewi" li pona mute. – jan Pensa (toki)   2024-05-06T12:40:07 (UTC)Reply[reply]
