The phonetic value of a vowel letter is the first vowel in its name.

Punctuation is as follows:

ˈɤˠ.ɵˣǃɚˠ.ʏˀʞɤːʱʡʞʱɷːˀɭɭ.[ˈɜˣ.ˀɤːɵʱ.ʭːˀ.ɘɚˠɷ.ʏˀʋːˠʌʱʞˠʡɭ]

===Nouns===

Noun stems often get lenited. Lenition works as follows:

* When the noun begins with a lenitable consonant (any consonant besides f, v, th, dh, ch and gh), the first consonant gets lenited. If the first consonant is z, λ or zj and there's a prefix before the lenited stem, an epenthetic -n- is inserted between the prefix and the stem.

* When the noun begins with a vowel, an n- is inserted before the stem.

For example:

# rasj 'spouse' → rasj

====Feminine nouns====

<!-- How do the words in your language look? How do you derive words from others? Do you have cases? Are verbs inflected? Do nouns differ from adjectives? Do adjectives differ from verbs? Etc. -->

co = present progressive

sjin = future

cψvo = simple present

Tense particles, like prepositions, may fuse with pronouns.

There are no adjectives per se in Rencadian, only abstract nouns whose genitives can function as adjectives:

Adjectives lenite after feminine nouns but not after masculine nouns.
