==== Syllabic Consonants ====

Toneless syllabic consonants are written with an overdot. On digraphs, the ~~overdot~~ is written only on the first letter (e.g. /ŋ̩ ʀ̩/ get written ~~⟨ṅg ṙr⟩~~). For the syllabic palatal nasal, the ⟨ñ⟩ is replaced with ⟨nh⟩, upon which the ~~overdot~~ can be placed ~~⟨ṅh⟩~~. ~~All syllabic~~ /v̩ ð̩/ ~~are~~ written with ~~⟨b d⟩~~ instead of ~~⟨v dh⟩~~, and so ~~receive~~ the ~~overdot~~ as ~~⟨ḃ ḋ⟩~~. Geminated syllabic consonants are only marked for syllabicity/tone on the ~~second~~ letter.

Toneless syllabic consonants are written with an overdot. On digraphs, the underdot is written only on the first letter (e.g. /ŋ̩ ʀ̩/ get written ⟨ṇg ṛr⟩). For the syllabic palatal nasal, the ⟨ñ⟩ is replaced with ⟨nh⟩, upon which the underdot can be placed ⟨ṇh⟩. Syllabic /ð̩/ is written with ⟨d⟩ instead of ⟨dh⟩, and so receives the underdot as ⟨ḍ⟩. Geminated syllabic consonants are only marked for syllabicity/tone on the final letter. The syllabic consonant /j̍/ may instead be written ⟨ị⟩ in lowercase.

==== Tones ====

High tone is marked with an acute accent on vowels without a diacritic. On vowels with a macron (denoting length), the macron is replaced with a circumflex (e.g. /í íː/ are ⟨í î⟩). High tone syllabic consonants /ɱ̩́ ń̩ ɲ̩́ ŋ̩́ ź̩ ʒ̩́ ẃ̩ ĺ̩ j̩́ ɾ̩́ ʀ̩́/ have their ~~overdots~~ replaced with the acute accent ⟨ḿ ń ńh ńg ź źh ẃ ĺ ý ŕ ŕr⟩. High tone ~~syllabic consonants~~ /v̩ ð̩/ ~~are~~ written with ~~a bar~~ instead of ~~an acute accent ⟨ƀ đ⟩.~~

High tone /ð̩/ is written with ⟨ð⟩ instead of ⟨d́⟩, and high tone /v̩/ is written with a

Because word-initial high tone words are most common, Iskel romanizes them differently to avoid extensive diacritic use: a high tone on a multisyllabic word is not written if there is only one high tone and it's word initial. Multisyllabic words with no tones are written as if they have a word-initial high tone.
