In addition to these vowel qualities, Galatian has a length distinction and a historical aspiration distinction (now only retained epenthetically or in conservative dialects, but still consistently written in the orthography). In the Greek orthography this is marked using the rough or smooth breathing diacritic on a vowel. In the Arabic, it is marked using the letter ھ, while in Georgian it is marked using the letter ჰ.

Valmoric has limited vowel harmony for bound morphemes: Morphemes subject to harmony which contain an ι, ε, or η will change this to an υ, ο, or ω respectively if the adjacent syllable contains an υ, ου, ο, or ω. Such harmonised vowels are marked with the circumflex: υ̂, ô, ω̂.

In addition to these vowel qualities, Galatian has a length distinction and a historical aspiration distinction (now only retained epenthetically or in conservative dialects, but still consistently written in the orthography). In the Greek orthography this is marked using the rough or smooth breathing diacritic on a vowel. In the Arabic, it is marked using the letter ھ, while in Georgian it is marked using the letter ჰ.

The Lord's Prayer

The Galatian version lacks the reference to forgiving sin, based on an omission in an apocryphal Q source translation into Galatian. Most Galatian Christians pray the prayer in Greek.
