[top]Syllables

Each syllable consists of a constant (can be followed by a syllabic l, m, n, or r), a vowel or syllabic constant, and finally another constant (can be followed by syllabic constant.)

[top]Constants




[top]Vowels

Up to 3 vowels can form a vowel cluster. It can be on 1 or 2 sounds, but for 3 letters, you simply drop the final vowel and follow the 2-letters.

[top]Length

It can be "short" or "long" vowels. Short is used when there's more than one vowel, and long is used when it is the only vowel or the vowel is said with a silent e, or there is a y in the end, or it is a doubled vowel.

[top]Diacritics

Diaeresis: Splits a "purported" double vowel into two single vowels, and a triple vowel to a double vowel and a single vowel, or three single vowels. It is placed on the start or end on the vowel, or in the middle (for very rare cases). It is also used on silent e to mark it is pronounced.
lüe /lu/ "brown" instead of lue /lɪ/ "split"
Acute: Used on the borders of two vowels to split up four vowels to 2 double vowels (bpaéíet /pɛɛt/ "numbers"). It is also used on the silent E to split up the vowels whilst keeping the E silent.
[top]Double Letters

If there is a double constant, the second letter on the double letters is silenced.
In case of vowels, the second letter on the double letters is also silenced and the first letter is lengthened.
