-A word could have at most one syllable with ablaut. This ablaut is no longer productive in Katäfalsen but was in Old Katafalsen.
+A noun could have at most one syllable with ablaut. This lexical ablaut is no longer productive in Katäfalsen but was in Old Katafalsen.
-Such syllables are sensitive to stress, meaning that e/o, ē and ō in stressed syllables corresponded to ə, e and o in unstressed syllables.
-The most common reason for stress shifts is the suffixation of one of the case suffixes ''-a'', ''-i'' and ''-u'', which attract stress.
+The sound changes from Old Katäfalsen to Katäfalsen happened in two stages. During the first stage, the morphology and some phonological features of modern Katäfalsen like metathesis and epenthesis were not developed yet.
-This explains irregular forms such as ''peres + e'' → ''parese'' from ''ˈperisə + i'' → ''pəriˈsi''.
+After the development, a second row of sound changes occured, which led to the situation described in [[#Phonology|Phonology]].
-The sound changes from Old Katäfalsen to Katäfalsen were:
 *Loss of non-syllabic vowels
 **As syllable onsets: a̯ → ħ, i̯ → j, u̯ → w
