This language has four tones. Because the letters have diaresis, we use superscript numbers instead of additional diacritical marks to indicate tones.
# Average tone: 55
# Rising tone: 25
# Falling tone(lower): 31
# Falling tone(higher): 51

== Glyphs and Words ==
Each basic vocabulary word consists of a single syllable. Since each syllable corresponds to one character, these basic vocabulary words have only one character (we will discuss the sinicization scheme later).
New words are constructed by combining monosyllabic words. A large number of words are disyllabic. For example,
<pre>
Language = Talking + Sound
Student = Study + Human
Dawn = Morning + Before
</pre>
== Syntax ==
We use the SOV sentence structure of the Tibeto-Burman language family (rather than the Sinitic language family).
For example(we use phonetic alphabets):
<pre>
They discuss a problem.
他们讨论一个问题。
他们 一个 问题 讨论
to1men2 i1no2 un3te2 i4lun3.
</pre>
Since both the Sino-Tibetan language family languages have a large number of measure words, we also use the measure word system here, stipulating that nouns must be combined with numerals using measure words.
For example:
* General classifier: <code>no2</code>
* For elongated objects: <code>tiao2</code>
* For plants (especially trees): <code>ke1</code>
* For flat objects: <code>pian4</code>
