2 | 2) If a vowel cluster results from affixation then the following occurs: | ||
a) if the first vowel in the cluster is short then an epenthetic /n/ is inserted after the first vowel in the cluster. | a) if the first vowel in the cluster is short then an epenthetic /n/ is inserted after the first vowel in the cluster. | ||

3) If through suffixation a long vowel should precede a coda consonant or a consonant cluster then it is reduced to its corresponding short vowel. | |||
4) If through affixation /j/ should follow a front long vowel then that front long vowel is reduced to its corresponding short vowel. | |||
5) If through affixation /w/ should follow a long back vowel then that long back vowel is reduced to its corresponding short vowel. | |||
