## (Re)definition of charater groups
The set of these vowel characters in `A` group and consonants in `C` group may be
redefined for a particular language. Other sets of letters indicated by `B`, `E`, `F` and `G`
usually have specific meaning for each particular language.
(Re)definition of letter groups is done in [tr_languages.c](../src/libespeak-ng/tr_languages.c)

unicode letters should be transposed using `transpose_min` and `transpose_max` parameters
of particular `Translator` structure.
