Covalent Greek has the following diphthongs: '''æ, ei''' /ɶi̯/ '''au''' /ɶu̯/ '''eu''' /eu̯/ '''œ''' /oi/ '''ue''' /ui/
 
M-Clofabylin phonotactics are really simple: monosyllables may be CV or (if not glottalized) CVC. Disyllables are CVCV or, again if not glottalized, CVCVC.


So for example "zu-mâb" and "zu-mä" are allowed but "zu-mäb" isn't.
Syllables may also begin with consonant clusters though only some clusters are allowed [list].
