Suggestion: Names for Letters

Drem yol lok, pah! 

A couple friends and I think it would make communication easier in Dovahzul, and would help complete the language if the letters/runes in Dovahzul had "names." What I mean by this is how when someone wants to talk about individual letters in English, one could say "Aye" "Bee" "See" "Dee" and so on.

There are children's songs in which the lyrics are only the letters of the English alphebet. If we made names for the Dovahzul runes and letters, then perhaps someone could make a Dovahzul alphabet song? That would be really funny, but also would help people learn the language.

So, thinking about it, it would simply make sense for there to be names for these letters and runes.

i agree, it would be really cool if the runes had names, it would be easier to teach people and correct them in spoken dovahzul, without having to resort to speaking in english.

and it would also jsut be hilarious to have an abc song in dovahzul! xD

It's been done. Check out Lessons > Alphabet & Pronunciation, and look for the loudspeaker icons.

Ah, alright. Myself and my friends had assumed that these were simply examples of the letter's phonetic sound. Thank you for this! Now I can start making an alphabet song! xD
