Please how do you type the Isoko vowels with the dot underneath the letter E and O?
Thanks
Thanks for this great work. Please note the video on part 1 (alphabet and digraphs) has a low audio output and we struggle to hear it. Please can you work on it to get a better audio?
Thanks for the great work.

Thanks.
However, I need you to clarify between isoko and urhobo and who uses what? growing up I was told 'degwo' is isoko while 'megwo' is urhobo.

This is why you need the vocabularies. With them you can make sentences. When people are talking you can easily get what they are saying.
