Bidental Percussive

[05:14] Nate Another thing I'd do is set it up so the phonotactics (ie the rules that say how phonemes can combine to make words) would be incredibly loose. This mostly comes from the fact that, biologically, the dragons would have long mouths with long, thin tongues, meaning that they could pull off stuff that would be difficult for a human mouth to reproduce. Another idea would be to throw in something for the... I'm gonna use the word "striking" of teeth together. That would be a cool phoneme for a dragon language (and specifically it would be called a bidental percussive)
[05:17] Nate Also if you're curious about how to signify the bidental percussive in IPA, from what I can tell, it's /Ê­/ (hopefully it renders. Hexchat doesn't like it.)
[05:20] Keileon Dragons frequently snap their jaws together as an expression of impatience or unease
[05:20] Keileon So it works in the actual language

Double "s" and trilled "r"

[00:21] Guest15247 Rásst, eh? um
[00:21] Guest15247 Yeah, | sːsː | is probably how you want to transcribe the 'ss'
[00:23] Guest15247 Kuda; | r͡ræsːsːt | then
[00:23] Keileon What's that double r thing
[00:24] Guest15247 Trilled r
[00:25] Guest15247 You could use | r | but that's- I mean I don't -think- it's as trilled as I think you're imagining the dragon r to be
[00:25] Keileon I've just been writing it as /r/ welp
[00:25] Keileon Although wait
[00:26] Keileon [22:47] Keileon I think I'll make /ʀ/ the sound for "reí"
[00:26] Keileon That was a while back
[00:26] Keileon When I was finalizing my IPA
[00:26] Guest15247 | ʀ |? Whoa you Frenchin'
[00:26] Keileon So it's like
[00:26] Keileon /r/ and /Ê€/
