Thank you, John. Let me see if I understand this correctly: A leave of E is valued at 0.35 A leave of R is valued at 1.1 But a leave of ER is not valued at 1.45; rather it is: (0.35 + 0.7) + (1.1 - 0.5) = 1.65
Is this right? And the same adjustment factor for vowels (+0.7) and consonants (-0.5) is used whether the vowel is E or U and the consonent is R or V?
