The Phonetic-Picture Letters for Cutting out
Below you see the letters (black) and their sound values (red) of the known
phonetic picture-writing.
This is the phonetic picture-writing with 15 letters, which is used e.g. in the interactive program for typing words
and in the dictionaries.
Print this page (or only its lower part - if you want enlarged or reduced in size).
Better print more than once, as some words contain
some letters more than once. Then cut out the letters: at first along the blue lines,
then horizontally along the mid of the letter spaces. Now you can lay words with
the cut out pieces and recognize their sound values at once, as this example shows:

The cut out pieces are combined without vertical spaces.
The reading direction is from bottom to top.
When reading, you sometimes have to supplement the sounds i, j,
as explained in the main article.
(Remember: the sign ∫ is a shortening for sh like in shoe)
