Verdict: WARN
Notes
- 72.7% Word==IPA ratio is high but expected for a sparsely attested Anatolian language where many words lack established IPA beyond the orthographic form. Lycian used an alphabetic script close to Greek, so orthography approximates phonology.
- Count of 99 is just barely below the expected minimum of 100. This is borderline acceptable -- not a red flag.
- 11 duplicate concepts exist but these are genuine synonyms/doublets in Lycian (e.g., cbatru/kbatra for "daughter", tri/trei for "three"). This is linguistically plausible.
- IPA conversions that DO differ from Word are linguistically sound: h->x (fricative), z->ts (affricate), q->kw (labiovelar). These match known Lycian phonology (Melchert 2004).
- All glosses are specific and domain-appropriate for an ancient Anatolian language (kinship terms, religious vocabulary, numerals).
