Indeyivroplu has quite a high level of freedom when it comes to phonotactics. There are three rules governing the scenarios where consonant clusters can break the Sonority Sequencing Principle:
Indeyivroplu has quite a high level of freedom when it comes to phonotactics. There are 3 rules governing the scenarios where consonant clusters can break the Sonority Sequencing Principle:


# = A single syllable may contain multiple adjacent nasals, fricatives, or plosives, as long as two of the same phoneme (disregarding voicedness) don’t occur adjacently within the syllable.

Additionally, there is a 4th phonotactic rule:
Additionally, there is a 4th phonotactic rule:
# = Word stems / morphemes must ''always'' end in a consonant. This exists to more clearly mark the start of an inflection in a word, since all inflections begin with a vowel.
* Individual morphemes (word stems) must ''always'' end in a consonant. Thus when a morpheme ends in a front vowel in its original language, it converts to <j>, while a final back vowel becomes <h>.
#: Generally, a final front vowel in the original language converts to <j>, and a final back vowel becomes <ğ>.
*: This rule exists to more clearly mark the start of an inflection in a word, since all inflections begin with a vowel.
