Stress
Stress is irregular and might occur in the last three syllables. It's mark is grave accent (`). In all vowel digraphs, apart from èi and ue, the stress is noted on the second letter.

Stress rules:
 * 1) Words ending in -ue cannot be stressed on the third-to-last syllable.
 * 2) Never stress digraphs ae or oe. When oe needs to be stressed it turns to eu. When ae needs to be stressed, the stress falls on the next syllable.
 * 3) In Functional mood of verbs the stress in on the last syllable. In Subjunctive mood we keep the orthography the same but we move the stress on the pre-last syllable.
 * 4) Y when stressed is stressed with acute accent.

Y
Y Phonotactics:

vwl. + y + vwl. -> /vjv/ eg. aye ->/aje/

cons. + y -> /ci/ eg. my -> /mi/

Diaelyted Y

vwl. + ÿ + vwl. -> /viv/ eg. aÿe -> /aie/

consonant + ÿ -> /cj/

Ending Y

- vwl. + y -> /vj/ eg. -ay -> -/aj/

- vwl. + ÿ -> /vij/ eg. -aÿ -> /aij/

To pronounce ending y before a vowel /i/ we transform it to ii. In other words, ii indicates an y that had to be pronounced /i/

-aii -> /ai/

E
Ending E

-e -> /e/ eg. fe -> /fe/

vwl + consonant + ë -> /vc/ eg. ifë -> /if/

-ILLE
-ille -> /ij/

-èille -> /aij/ -èille = aÿ

LL in -ille is pronounced /j/

E in -ille isn't pronounced at all

To reset -ille /ij/ to /iʎe/:

Put diaelytic mark on e:

-illë -> /iʎe/

C/CH/G/ Ʀ - QU/GU/Y/HU
c/ch/g/Ʀ + a, o, ou, ae, au, oi, èi, => k/x/ɣ/g

C + e, i, u, oe, iè, ai, eu, ui -> Qu + e, i, u, oe, iè, ai, eu, ui => c

Ch + e, i, u, oe, iè, ai, eu, ui -> Hu + e, i, u, oe, iè, ai, eu, ui => ç

g + e, i, u, oe, iè, ai, eu, ui -> Gu + e, i, u, oe, iè, ai, eu, ui => ɟ

vwl + Ʀ + e, i, u, oe, iè, ai, eu, ui -> vwl + Y + e, i, u, oe, iè, ai, eu, ui => j

cons. + Ʀ + e, i, u, oe, iè, ai, eu, ui -> cons. + Ÿ + e, i, u, oe, iè, ai, eu, ui => j

Verb group 1: verbs ending in consonant + vowel (digraph) (CV verb scheme)
We dispose of the vowel (or vowel digraph) and form the tenses according to the table below. These verb tense forms correspond to the 1st singular person. On the table below you will see inflections for each tense of a Group 1 Verb:

Verb Group 2: verbs ending in consonant (VC verb scheme)
We don't dispose of any letters as the last consonant of a verb shows its stem, which remains in all forms.

E.g. The stem of naloì is nal-. The stem of pùƦ is puƦ.

We use the Group 1 endings to form the verb conjugations.

Verb Group 2, however, forms a subjunctive form too.

Verb Group 3: Irregular verbs
Irregular verbs have irregular changes to their stem apart from the endings above. Most verbs ending in -Ʀ are irregular. Irregular verbs form Subjunctive as VC but they don't form Indefinite Tense (as CV).
