How to type
  • Keep the accents on día, país, río, rúa, saír: they decide whether i or u is a full vowel.
  • Spanish x: type it the way you say it: ks (examen → eksamen), j (México → mejico) or s.
  • gheada is your proposal (ح). Open e (è) is the Portuguese-style e split: type è for an open e (terra → tèrra).
  • ao and aos are handled for you.
  • Shorthand is the default. Add a mark by hand wherever you'd misread a word.
