+<!--All syllables have the following structure
-* '''(F)C(V)V((F)P)'''

+There are three types of syllables in Sast: precursory, subsequent and amalgam. Generally speaking, precursory and subsequent syllables come in pairs, whereas amalgam syllables come on their own. Note how the amalgam syllable is very similar to a precursory-subsequent syllable pair.
+*Precursory: '''(F)CV'''
+*Subsequent: '''-V((F)P)'''
+*Amalgam: '''(F)CV((F)P)'''
+====Consonant clusters====
+Certain consonant clusters never occur, due to their difficulty in pronounciation. Others are rare, but still do occur.
