* ȝ is read as [j] when in the onset, in the coda is silent, to put [j] in the coda, g is used independently of what the vowel before was, to put [g], you repeat the g (Mågg [mɔg] vs Mæg [mɛj])

* "nh", "lh", "rh" and "ƿh" are purely etymological, so is it "ie" and "ea" but only when pronounced [a]
* æ and å are pronounce as diphthongs only in the british dialect, and at the ends of words.
* ea is normally pronounced [a] after labial consonants, otherwise it's pronounced [ja]
In the middle language, each vowel came in short and long form except 2 and 3 of them had a special rediced form, now this is only done in the orthography

Roots 1* and 2* are optional, if not given, Roots 1 and 2 are used.
Weak Verbs are conjugated the same way but use the same root as Present Form and the suffix -de (-de, -dest, -deþ, -don, -de, -den)

===Syntax===
Although SVO order is the most normal for affirmative and negative sentences, Theme first order is possible when one of them is singular, when both are plural, SVO takes over, for questions VSO order is the most common.
In imperative statements, the subject is ommited but the verb is still conjugated, if neccesary, a nominative pronoun can be inserted after the verb, also the imperative is used for immeadiate actions.
Cȝallast! [tʃaləst] - (You) call!
Cȝallað! [tʃaləð] - (He/She/They) call!
Cȝallað hœ! [tʃaləð hy:] - She('ll) call!
Cȝaliað! [tʃaljəð] - (We/You/They) call!
Cȝaliað Ƿe! [tʃaljəð wi:] - We('ll) call!

Numbers beetween 13 and 19 are done with the Nominative version of the number + tyn [tyn]
Outside of Tƿentig "twenty", tens are made via the suffix -tig [tɪ(j)], and tens are put before units (69: Sixtig nigon)
The word Hundred, functions in much the same way that its cognate in english and so does Þuzend [θəuzɪnd]
