SYNOPSIS
use Lingua::EN::Alphabet::Deseret;
print Lingua::EN::Alphabet::Deseret::transliterate("badger");
# prints "𐐺𐐰𐐾𐐨𐑉"DESCRIPTION
The Deseret alphabet was designed by the University of Deseret (now the University of Utah) in the mid-1800s as a replacement for the Latin alphabet for representing English.
Its ISO 15924 code is "Dsrt" 250.
This module transliterates English text from the Latin alphabet into the Deseret alphabet.

BUGS
The dictionary is quite small.
One of the vowels ("𐐂") cannot ever be produced because cmudict does not mark it as a distinct vowel. If you think some of the mappings I have made are incorrect, please let me know.
