Phonotactics

 * (C)V(C)(C)
 * Geminate consonants count as two consonants, can occur before before another (non-geminate) consonant, and cannot occur on a word boundary.
 * Words must begin in a consonant.

Basics
Tixistani is written in a semi-syllabary called ’Urshef or Rallisata. It has many interesting features:
 * The glottal stop is written as an accent mark. Whether it is to be phonetically positioned before or after the letter it is written on must be determined by context.
 * L, Ð, and Ŕ are written as R, S, and H plus a variation mark.
 * Z and V are written as S and F with a voice mark.
 * The letters for high vowels pull double-duty as consonants (U with G and I with Y). When two are next to each other, it must be inferred from context which are consonants.
 * Stop consonants are written as syllable blocks with each vowel. If, in the spoken language, a stop must not be before a vowel, it is written with a silent echo vowel from either side. ex. Hakre is written as H.A.Ka.R.E or H.A.Ke.R.E.
 * Geminate consonants are not written doubly, but with a lengthener accent mark.
 * Letter names are not arbitrary. ex. F is feskuŕ "skin", R ralli "cloud", and S sata "eye"
 * The script is written in downward columns which move from the left to the right.
 * Words are separated by a small punctuation mark.
