Introduction

This language is my first polysynthetic language and is my attempt at making one. This language is rather an experimental one - and I rather take it as my introduction into this category of languages and thus I don't think I'll make this language any lore or anything like that.

Stress in Ğuntýɉõłit is antepenultimate except for intransitive verbs, in which it is ultimate.

Phonotactics

All consonant clusters except geminations are permissible. Vowel clusters are not allowed - if after either merging two words or affixing two vowels end up next to one another, <w> is put in between the vowels, except if either of them is a nasal vowel; in this case, <ɉ> is used.
