In fact, Schumann has glossed this separate character as a word, which he glosses in morphemic gloss as a word or particle with unknown meaning. Iyyaħmi's representation conveys the sandhi process ''kusarʌ'' undergoes. As a result, Iyyaħmi's transcription yields two fewer words than Schumann's, the very two that Schumann has glossed as independent words. Iyyaħmi's gloss ultimately shows there are no unknown, independent words in the ligigant's text. | In fact, Schumann has glossed this separate character as a word, which he glosses in morphemic gloss as a word or particle with unknown meaning.

4) Iyyaħmi's reconstruction is based on a sentence from one of Éro's texts: | |||
{{Gloss | |||
|phrase = Ikúni behet mek, Ulái yótro mek hen | |||
| IPA = /i'ku:ni bɛhɛt mɛk u'laɪ 'jotɾo mɛkjɛn/ | |||
| morphemes = Ikúni behet mek, Úla=hai vótoro mek hen | |||
| gloss = lord VOC.DEFR please 2S=PST know please EMPH | |||
| translation = My lord, you alone know best. | |||
}} | |||
Here, the past tense clitic ''hai'' triggers both palatalization and syncope in the verb ''vótoro'' "to know". It is this example that Iyyaħmi posits the mutation [[Vadi#Adjectives |of the adjective phrase (AP).]] | |||
