Phonotactics

  • All words except for particles must have a C onset.
  • A standard root is C(R)V(S)C-, where R is r, l, y, or w and S is r, l, y, w, m, n, or x.
  • If optional R follows a C onset, C must be an obstruent.
  • If optional S precedes a C coda, C must be an obstruent.
  • All vowels must be separated by a C.
