> One example is Kir*kc*aldy: which is presently encoded as "KR*KK*".
> When omitting 'k' or 'c' letters (for example, Kircaldy or Kirkaldy) it is encoded as "KRKL".
> The correction consists to verify when letter 'c' follows 'k', if 'c' is encoded as 'K', it is ignored as for a succession of 'kk' letters. With this correction, Kirkcaldy would be encoded as "KRKL" which is more discriminant and compliant with the phonetic.
