I haven't had a chance to do so yet, but I think "suhore, selmaho, lehavla" would be better, the "h" being silent. A silent h is sometimes used to separate two "strong vowels" (a, e, o) in Spanish (e.g. "zanahoria", "alcohol", "ahorrar"). If I use "j", there might be confusion with {suxore}, {selmaxo}, {lexavla}. I'm not sure whether I shouldn't also change "lehavla" to "lehabla", since "vl" doesn't look very nice in Spanish. {cmavo} will be an even bigger problem, it will have to be "esmavo". Jorge
