====Notes====
In deliberately archaising speech, the attributive forms ''sỳt'', ''sỳn'', ''sỳs'', ''sỳm'' are pronounced /sə, sən, səs, səm/, however in ordinary speech these have all fallen together as /sə/ (/sən/ before a vowel). The vowel may also harmonise with the following word, e.g. ''sì sìlb'' instead of ''sỳ sìlb''; this is stigmatised however. Predicative forms retain their "full" pronunciations, from ''sýt'' /sɨːt/ to ''sýnę'' /sɨːnʲə̃/.
