how each name is written and said

No form recorded yet.

Members record their own voices and other speakers check them. Until then a computer voice reads the name (Kabyle and Tamazight: Meta MMS, CC BY-NC 4.0; Arabic: your device's voice). These names are names like any other: they can be proposed, challenged and connected in the formula.

How a change is graded

Same soundsall the way, every step dated: highest
Near sounds(q → c, ḥ → h): each lowers it
Opposite sounds, deletions, favourites, a language in betweenlower it more: they make chance matches easy
A dated spellingfor both forms raises it

Grades come from rules, never votes. Members check each step's dates and sources.
