====Syllable Structure====


Syllables take on a (C/FA)V(N) structure where C represents any consonant, FA represents a fricative followed by an approximate, and N represents any consonant that is not /j/, /w/, or /ɦ/. The last consonant in a syllable should not equal the first consonant in the next syllable, and neighboring vowels are always separated with /ɦ/, except for /i/ and /ə/, which are separated with /j/.
