			==== Vowel Harmony ====
			Muna has vowel harmony, which restricts the presence of vowels within a word to those belonging to the same group, defined by the first vowel in a stem. There are three groups: Front (front unrounded vowels), Neutral (front rounded vowels) and Back (back rounded vowels). Neutral vowels are transparent to the process, being allowed in any word. A word that begins with a neutral vowel or diphthong will default to back harmony.

	Non-lexical verb direction/location can be expressed through the use of a limited set of adpositions as applicative particles, while these particles can elevate the oblique to the object of a clause, argument dropping often makes this process implicit.		Non-lexical verb direction/location can be expressed through the use of a limited set of adpositions as applicative particles, while these particles can elevate the oblique to the object of a clause, argument dropping often makes this process implicit.

			Only intransitive verbs may be marked with the applicative particle, other verbs have to express direction and location through the use of prepositional phrases.
