ALA-LC Deseret Romanization Table, 2016 version (no earlier versions). The table is scoped to the Deseret script (the Deseret alphabet), not to any one language, so the language field carries the undetermined code; the alphabet was devised in the 1850s for English. Forty letters (six vowels and thirty-four consonants and vowel-length and diphthong forms), each mapping one-to-one; the letter values follow the printed table. The source document's text layer doubles every letter glyph in the vernacular column; a visual check of the rendered pages confirms a single letter per row, and the codepoints below are the Unicode Deseret block values corresponding to the table's letter order.
