In the same order of idea, Proquints are identifiers that are readable and pronounceable. In "Pronounceable Identifiers", Daniel S. Wilkerson proposes encoding a 16-bit string as a pronounceable quintuplets of alternating consonants and vowels as follows. Four-bits for consonants, and two-bits for vowels:
127.0.0.1 lusab-babad
63.84.220.193 gutih-tugad
63.118.7.35 gutuk-bisog
140.98.193.141 mudof-sakat
64.255.6.200 haguz-biram
128.30.52.45 mabiv-gibot
An ascii string: "Many hands make light work. "

- layer8 3y agoToo many similarly pronounced consonants. A variant that uses only two or three bits for the consonants would be interesting. Maybe some 5-bit subset of the Japanese Gojūon.
- o11c 3y agoThat first example's b-b is an immediate blatant problem, especially since h is a valid terminal. With unfamiliar words, there will also be problems with j/g/k. b/v/f, t/d, etc. The one thing this does better than bibi is that it avoids the "E" which confuses English speakers.
