I've been working on my Carthaginian again. I've settled on a "Sardinian"
vowel system with some complications for AU. I've settled on the basic
concept that will govern intervocalic voicing and palatalizations before I
and E for K and G and before U for S. I've decided (more or less) what to
do with final consonants.
Now I'm pondering what to do with QU and consonant clusters. I'm leaning
toward the Romanian solution for QU, but is that realistic with Western
treatment of palatalization? I want to do something to make C-o look a bit
less Iberian, but I'm not sure this is the right solution. Could QU go in
some other direction? Toward WH? Something else?

So lift the cup of joy and take a big drink.
In spite of it all it's a beautiful world.
