==Phonology==
=== Phonotactics ===
A morpheme is almost always monosyllabic. A syllable always has the structure IR<sup>T</sup>, where I = initial, R = rime, and T = tone.
 
There are 33 initials × 9 rimes × 11 tones = 3267 possible syllables.
 
=== Rimes ===

=== Tones ===
English names: "top, high, mid, low, bottom, bottom-rise, mid-rise, top-fall, mid-fall, dip, peak"
