Reboot the reboot: Le P'tit Aurèle (lexicon of the French-Acadian language)

(TiddlyWiki project)

For “Phonology and Spelling” attributes, I’ve added an “Old” checkbox for the “Standard French” spelling and punctuation.

For any Acadian word that is a spelling variant (because of phonetic mutation) of a Standard French word, I’ll enter the Standard French spelling and pronunciation.

Because the Standard French words are also spoken in Acadie, I include such words in the dictionary.

However, some Acadian words are based on “Old French” words that are not used today. I don’t want those words listed in my dictionary, so the checkbox flags a word for exclusion.
