==Prefix string for inner prefixes==
Outer prefixes-theme-mode-object prefix-intrusive classifiers-subject prefix-conjugation marker-clitic
==Combination of outer prefixes with theme vowels==
Rule 1a: if no theme vowel, vowel of outer prefix changes (usually lengthens, but depends on prefix)
la-0-0-0-caa'ni> laacaa'ni: he flies it
drai-0-0-fuu's'u> drayeehuu's'u: he barely finishes eating it
na-0-0-0-fuusi> neefuusi: she carries it piece by piece
Rule 1b: if there is a theme vowel, prefix will contract with it
Contractions with o, u, a, á
a: A, o, a, á

á: áyo, áyu, á, á

A: A, Au, A, Awá

e: eo, eu, e, áá

o: o, u, o, owá

ë: ëo, au, ë, ëyá

ï: io, iu, ue, iá

u: uo, u, o, uwá

i: io, e, e, iyá

ai, i-dipthongs: ayo, ayu, aye, ayá

eu, u-dipthongs: eo, eu, ewe, ewá

Rule 2: clitic f triggers changes in some preceding vowels.
ee>oo
ii>oo
ïï>iu
ëë>au
áá>eu

drai-0-0-0-f-uu's'u> drayoofuu's'u: you barely finish eating it

já-0-0-0f-a-gheedzhi> jeufgheedzhi: you leap  onto
