Well, here we go.

(Note; Hrakkar took over the majority of the editing work on the dictionary from our beloved Lajaki, in September of 2011. Lajaki continues to provide technical advice and help when needed, and he is always welcome here!)

Seems like I had missed to post some pronounciation modifiers that was revealed in the first chat.
For example after a q there is a vowel change.
/i/ > [e]; /e/ > [E]; /o/ > [O ]; /a/ > [A] / q_
Also he said that kh will float around a bit. It will be more palatal before front vowels.
I guess the vowel changes can be easily updated though I'm not sure about what exact sound he means that kh changes into. It's a bit vaguely stated. Possibly he means ç or something like that.
Lajaki:
Ho boy. That'll be fun to update, haha.
So...
/i/ > [e]
/e/ > [ɛ]
/o/ > [ɔ]
/a/ > [ɑ]
Right?

Hmm, right.
