==Accent==
There are two marked accents: relative high and low pitch. High pitch uses an acute accent (á) and low pitch uses a grave accent (à). There is also a neutral accent. After an accented syllable, all subsequent syllables may use the same pitch until the next accented syllable. Thus:
There are two marked accents: high-pitch and low-pitch. High pitch uses an acute accent (á) and low pitch uses a grave accent (à). Words could have one accent, both accents, or perhaps even no accents. Different dialects had different accent systems which makes them difficult to reconstruct.
:: ''<strong>N.B.:</strong> If you see a word has no accent marked, that's probably because I forgot to actually assign accents to words when making the lexicon. So, uh... whoops? Just assign whatever accents you want, I guess.''
<!--There is also a neutral accent. After an accented syllable, all subsequent syllables may use the same pitch until the next accented syllable. Thus:
* tatáta = NHH (or LHH)
* tatáta = NHH (or LHH)
* tátatà = HHL
* tátatà = HHL
* tatatà = NNL (or HHL)
* tatatà = NNL (or HHL)-->
