Larry, wouldn't 'transliteration' also apply to changing Cajun French to English, like from 'c'est ca l'habille' to 'say sah labee'? or did I get the wrong word for this application...what word would work better instead of transliteration? thanks

that would be 'phonetic transcription'


sort of a tablature but for words.. :)
