conlangs (++)
I've finally come up with a name for the conlang I've been working on:
jō ɓǫ wúgų dān
(Or "Yobo wugu dan", for how I'd expect English speakers to end up pronouncing it)
the diacritics represent tones - a line above means a high tone, an ogonek below means a low tone, and the upwards-rising diacritic represents a rising (low to high) tone
All other sounds are as per the IPA, so j is the sound at the start of the word "yellow", and ɓ is the bilabial implosive (sound not in English)

@lizardsquid Why an overline and ogonek instead of an overline and underline? That feels a little more natural.

re: conlangs (++)
@Felthry because I could figure out how to do ogoneks on my keyboard, but not underlines.
I could also change it to "low tone is represented with no diacritics at all", but we'll see
(Also this language is spoken on a fictional world with no connection to our own, and so the real writing system for the language is nothing like this - the romanisation is just for me to be able to write it down)
