-i have to reinterpret /ja je iːa jaː wa wo uːa waː ɥa ɥø yːa ɥaː/ into Vr
+Diphthongs: '''au''' /aʊ/ '''äu, eu''' /ɔʏ/ '''ei''' /aɪ/
-> err, irr, ier, ehr, orr, urr, uhr, ohr, örr, ürr, ühr, öhr?
+===Tones===
-what about /əː/?
+high modal = tone 2, high breathy = tone 3; low modal = tone 4, low breathy = tone 1
-i'll merge it with /aː/
-i might write the /aː/ from /əː/ as <ahr>
-/j/ /w/ <-j -w> (ai and au are true nuclei)

+===Derivational morphology===
+====Erhua====
+'Erhua' with the suffix ''-er'' / ''-r'' /-ɐ/ may occur.
-qei sounds good
-Partartian will have breathy voice btw
-i'll give the rzaimy-like language a different name
-final fricative > breathy (with compensatory lengthening) > falling tone
-Qêi
-there's no glottalized tone class unlike in RW (treated the same as breathy tone)
-(high, low ) x (modal, breathy) = 4 tones
-nice
-maybe 4 tones as in mandarin
-high modal = tone 2, high breathy = tone 3; low modal = tone 4, low breathy = tone 1
