* When compounding words leads to two vowels in a row in a word, drop the first vowel.

** If adding a verbal infix to change the part of speech results in a duplicate, add ''-uh-''; e.g. ''[[Contionary: aetol|aetol]]'' ‘to laugh (with)’, + ''[[Contionary: -t-|-t-]]'' ‘(nominalization)’ → ''[[Contionary: aetuhtol|aetuhtol]]'' ‘communal laughter’, not **''aetol''. | ** If adding a verbal infix to change the part of speech results in a duplicate, add ''-uh-''; e.g. ''[[Contionary: aetol#Brooding|aetol]]'' ‘to laugh (with)’, + ''[[Contionary: -t-|-t-]]'' ‘(nominalization)’ → ''[[Contionary: aetuhtol#Brooding|aetuhtol]]'' ‘communal laughter’, not **''aetol''. | ||
* When compounding words with verbs to make other verbs is a specific case, because the form of a verb is so specific. This is one of the places where Brooding becomes a bit more complex than normal. | * When compounding words with verbs to make other verbs is a specific case, because the form of a verb is so specific.

To make compounds that indicate a noun in possession of a noun, you compound the core word with the possessive form of the possessor noun. For example, “cow’s foot” would be ''[[Contionary: foolshem|foolshem]]'' (possessive form of ''[[Contionary: foos|foos]]'': ''[[Contionary: fools|fools]]'' + ''[[Contionary: hem|hem]]''). Note that the word is pronounced ''fools-hem'', not ''fool-shem''. | To make compounds that indicate a noun in possession of a noun, you compound the core word with the possessive form of the possessor noun.
