1 DIGITAL LITERACY SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERY 1

2 Centuries birthday of JOHN ATANASOV John Atanassov was very much interested in the most important means of communication the human language and its written equivalent. It can be said that written languages, when compared to the spoken ones, are a symbolic presentation of the latter. This representation does not have a single meaning and therefore can have a different quality. When John Atanassov was awarded the Cyril and Methodius medal, something he had not expected, he showed he was very well informed about the work of the brothers Cyril and Methodius. This was due to the fact that he was interested in different scripts. He also complained about the high percentage of illiteracy in the USA and explained that fact with the imperfections of written English. He also considered the Cyrillic alphabet to be more felicitous. This motivated him to create a new script which would be entirely phonetic and suitable for both people and machines. He did not fulfill his dream although he aspired after it till the end of his life. 2

3 DEFINITION of the discovery The figures of decimal counting system could be used for recording and transferring of communicative sound and written speech from one language or dialect to any other such. The target group: The human generation of 21th century! 3

4 INTERNATIONAL STANDARD project The system operates with numerical codes for any sound and written speech of all languages recorded in a computer device memory only by the digits: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 0 4

5 New computer based literacy for communication in native language. 5

6 Our solution ABCDEEF (Roman) АБВГДЕЖЗ (Cyrillic) α β γ δ ε ζ η θ (Greek) 日本拒绝就慰安妇问题与 (Chinese).(Arabian) العربیة الا بجدیة Հայկական այբուբեն (Armenian) Only by digits 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0 6

7 CONTENTS Digital phonetic alphabet Digital morphology Digital alphabet Digital syntax Digital numerical code of languages and dialects 7

9 International phonetic alphabet current status 9

10 DIGITAL PHOTETIC ALPHABET The digits show the characteristics of the phonemes 10

11 Digital coding of phonemes first digits (1- vowel; 2 consonant; 3-non-pulmonic consonant) Vowels second digit (1- close; 2-close-mid; 3-open-mid; 4-open); third digit (0-non rounded vowel; 1-rounded vowel); forth digit (1-front; 2-near-central; 3-central;4-near-back; 5- back; fifth digit show suprasegmentals (0-without; 1- primary stress; 2- secondary stress; 3-long; 4- half long; 5-extra-short; 6-minor (foot) break; 7-major (intonation) break; 8-syllable break; 9- linking (no break); sixth digit show word accents (1-rising; 2-falling; 3- high rising; 4-low rising; 5-high falling; 6-low falling; 7-rising falling; 8-falling rising; 9-global rise; 0-global fall; seventh digit show level tones (1-extra high; 2-high; 3-mid; 4-low; 5-extra low 11

12 Digital coding of phonemes first digit (1- vowel; 2 consonant; 3-non-pulmonic consonant) Second digit Consonants (1-voice consonant; 2- unvoiced consonant); Third digit show the manner of articulation (1- plosive; 2- nasal; 3- trill; 4-tap or flap; 5-fricative; 6-lateral fricative; 7-approximant; 8-lateral; Fourth and fifth digit show the place of articulation (01-bilabial; 02-labiodental; 03-dental; 04-alveolar; 05-postalveolar; 06-retroflex; 07-palatal; 08-velar; 09- uvular; 10-oharyngeal; 11-epiglottal; 12-glottal. 12

13 Digital coding of the phonemes first digit (1- vowel; 2 consonant; 3-non-pulmonic consonant) Consonants Sixth digit show the length (1-short; 2- long Slovak vrba!) Seventh digit show the mildness (0-normal; 1-soft Slovak - Poľnohospodárstvo). Each phoneme is encoded by 7 digits! 13

14 Digital coding of the phonemes first digit (1- vowel; 2 consonant; 3-non-pulmonic consonant) Non-pulmonic consonant First digit 3 Second digit show clicks (1-bilabial click; 2-dental click; 3-(post)alveolar click; 4-palatoalveolar click; 5-alveolar lateral click 14

15 Digital coding of the phonemes first digit (1- vowel; 2 consonant; 3-non-pulmonic consonant) Non-pulmonic consonant Third digit show Voiced implosives 1-Bilabial voiced implosive; 2- Dental/alveolar voiced implosive; 3-Palatal voiced implosive; 4-Velar voiced implosive; 5-Uvular voiced implosive; 15

16 Digital coding of the phonemes first digit (1- vowel; 2 consonant; 3-non-pulmonic consonant) Non-pulmonic consonant Fourth digit show Ejectives: 1-2-(p ) Bilabial ejective; 3-(t )Dental/alveolar ejective; 4-(k ) Velar ejective; 5-(s )Alveolar fricative ejective The fifth, sixth and the seventh digits are (0-zero) 16

17 Digital coding of the phonemes In recognition aloud all phonemes in all languages are uniquely identified with seven-digit codes! 17

18 Digital morphology parts of speech The parts of speech in the world language are exactly 10: 1. Verb 6. Preposition 2. Noun 7. Conjunction 3. Adverb 8. Numeral 4. Adjective 9. Particle 5. Pronoun 10. Interjection 18

19 Digital morphology grammatical categories The grammatical categories gender, singular and plural, case (in an inflected languages), tense etc. are coded for each of words.
