Thank you, Macky-sensei. Yes, I know the concepts of 音読み, 訓読み and what is 送り仮名. Your recording is very interesting and it will help me remember the most important readings of those kanji. どうもありがとうございました。
As for my request, I haven't explained well. どうもすみません。
Let's say you have to reproduce from memory the list of kanji above (and in the same order), but saying ご、ご、ご、ご for 五、午、後、語 is not helpful. You have to make a distinction somehow, right? So what would you do? What words would you choose? (Like in English: A as in Apple, B as in Bee)
An alternative to saying the English alphabet as A, B, C, D etc. is to say Alpha, Bravo, Charlie, Delta etc. You know, as in movies when the pilot is saying "This is India Golf Niner Niner approaching" (IG99)
Hi iji-san,
I couldn't access RhinoSpike lastweek.
I think server down.

Umm..., Is your question distinction of pronounciation?
I think these pronounciation is almost same.
Japanese language, as you know, is very simple intonation.
But, probably, You want to distinguish the same pronounciation of Kanji.
So,,, 五、午、後、語, If I explain distinction of pronounciation, for example,
五： 数字の五という字（すうじ の ご と いう じ） Suuji-no-go to-iu-ji
午： 午前、午後の午という字（ごぜん、ごご の ご と いう じ） Gozen, Gogo-no-go to-iu-ji
後： うしろという字（うしろ という じ） Usiro-no-go to-iu-ji
語： 日本語の語（にほんご の ご と いう じ） Nihongo-no-go to-iu-ji
Is this OK?
Sorry, I mistake spelling.
後： うしろという字（うしろ という じ） Usiro to-iu-ji
This pronounciation is Kun-Yomi of 後。

Do you know "On-Yomi" and "Kun-Yomi" ?
I think,
On-Yomi :(音読み) These pronounciation almost came from Old-China.
Kun-yomi :(訓読み) These pronaunciation is original in Japan.
And, in any case, Kun-yomi needs Okuri-gana(送り仮名).
Do you know Okuri-gana？
For example, (As you know)
休み → 休（Yasu） + み（mi） : み is Okuri-gana.
見る → 見(mi) + る(ru) : る is Okuri-gana.
Do you understand?
