Btw, there's a mising phonetic letter in Swiss German, somewhere between ä and ö, kind of a aeo. But since it's rarely written dialekt (personal chats), we work around this with Umlauts and context.
Õ?
Oh right, french might have them. Soft 'o', right.
Estonian actually. I'm having a hard time thinking of an English word for an example. I guess I'd write bone phonetically as bõun? Or own as õun as well. With the u in our language sounding much like u in bauen or rauchen in German if I'm pronouncing those right.
