Meanwhile in the English alphabet (I call it that because it was made in England especially for use with the English language... and I hate eponyms, but it's usually called Shavian or the Shaw alphabet)...

Ado, up, ooze and yew (𐑩, 𐑳, 𐑵 𐑯 𐑿) are named with an example of how they're pronounced, and all are equivalent to different usages of the Latin 'u'.

Yea, if and eat (𐑘, 𐑦 𐑯 𐑰) are named with an example of how they're pronounced, and all are equivalent to different usages of the Latin 'y'.

Woe (𐑢) is named with an example of how it's pronounced, and is equivalent to the Latin 'w'.
