  • 2.20.0 — A dedicated audit poem (built from real entries in Alucard's own
    dictionnaire-perso.json) surfaced one more small gap: "ch" pronounced [k] instead of the
    usual [ʃ] in a handful of Greek-origin/technical words — "pétrichor", "chœur", "chrome",
    "chronique", "choral", "écho", "orchestre", "psychologie", "archéologie", "chaos", "chlore",
    "chrétien", "technique", "technologie", "orchidée"... Fixed in both allitérations (for words
    actually starting with "ch") and Trame phonique (for "ch" anywhere in the word, which is how
    this was first noticed — "pétrichor" was landing in the same [ʃ] bucket as "chien"/"chaleur"
    instead of its own [k] one). Small root-based exception list, not exhaustive, same pattern as
    the other exceptions already in this section (CaReFuL, "-er" infinitives, "ill"...).
