Akeminopu is what I have developed as the largest amount of nonredundant phonemic material that can be effectively transcribed into languages spoken by upwards of 99% of the human population.

If you take away from English phonetics any sound that doesn't exist or exists only ambiguously with some other sound in languages such
Spanish, Mandarin, Russian, Hawaiian, Japanese and Korean, you get 5 basic vowel types and 4 consonants.

Alternating the consonants and vowels makes better phonetic sense than just listing them alphabetically as a group.

I got the idea after reading about the guy in SF whose full time job is making up names for cars and prescription medications and whatnot.
The guy won't tell us which names he invented, but, as you know, most such names cannot be universally transcribed, and, due to their lack of intrinsic definition, cannot be literally translated. This is a small problem, or as I like to call such things, a 'challenge'.
I figured I could do a little better with the phonetic part. Even if what I came up with would never persuade anyone to buy anything, it would
be a worthwhile intellectual exercise.
One of the name inventor's openly acknowledged criteria is 'Google zero'; a state in which a name does not yet come up on Google.
Thanks to Tribe.net, I can now be credited with inventing the word 'Akeminopu', whatever that is.
That's right. I just created the world's most distinctively transcription-friendly word. Forgive me if I gloat.

Possible personal names on which I might be infringing, though, include the following combinations I have not found with Google either:

Ake Minopu

Akem Inopu

The first one is a plausible Japanese name, I think, and might come up on Google eventually. Sorry to beat the owner or owners of this name to the English spelling as far as Google is concerned. Hey... people you don't even know are talking about you. Did you even know you were this famous?

The second one is Turkish and Japanese, so don't hold your breath for that. When people in the future use advanced Google to find
Akem Inopu in Spanish, Mandarin, Russian, Hawaiian, Japanese and Korean (and Turkish) they will find this thread being the oldest
reference and they will find me. Now I'm famous too. That's really groovy, although I'm probably long dead by the time anyone really important winds up reading this for some reason.

Even though, I'm probably long dead, I'd like to immediately Akem Inopu congratulations to some future person named Akem Inopu for having such a fortuitous name.
Really, Akem, you are blessed. You can probably sell anything anywhere. Your name makes you the ultimate spokesperson.
Make the most of it.

While I'm feeding the Google spiders, let me also generate the following string of characters:

Upo Nimeka

These are also 2 real words, but they are unlikely ever to have occurred before in succession.
Should I even bother taking bets on how long it will be before someone shows this utterly pronounceable, utterly transcribable and
utterly unprecedented lexical dyad to Noam Chomsky? Of course I should. I have the idea that I could sleep even more furiously with some colorless green. (Yes, I did do this last part just to feed the spiders; you all better get your bets in quickly).

I suppose I might also throw in some choice anagrams that will make this thread of even greater interest to untold millions of future linguistics nerds...

ion makeup

open umiak

okapi menu

These don't transcribe phonetically, but, hey- at least I've got them on the page.

Sure, I've wasted some time and data space on this thread, but so what?

At least I'm not on MySpace with blond streaks in my hair, lying about listening to techno.

For all we know, cyberhistorians may be more interested in the last sentence than in the rest of the thread.

Fine. Whatever. Let's all humor each other, eh?
