Vowel-reducing paradigms

"Crawling-up" nouns
The "crawling-up" (Netagin: mittzúchábh) nouns underlyingly end in a consonant cluster. In the singular oblique cases the stem is turned into a CaCC (if the bare form is CeCaC, CiCC for CéCaC and CoCC for CóCaC) form, and the dual and plural turn the stem into (CaCáC, CeCáC and CoCáC).
Nouns ending in geminated/eclipsed consonants
-eh
The suffix -eh is deleted before a case ending.
