Phonological diphtongs
There are four diphtongs with a different sound from the two vowels. They are the base of Krisnallen verbal system, in fact every verbal conjugation is charaterized by one of them. As we can see there are no way to know if a sound is made by a phonological diphtong or by a single vowel. We can know it only by context or experience.

Non phonological diphtongs
There are many non phonological diphotongs. Everyone has a sound deriving by combination of both vowels.

These diphtongs are:

AE [a'ε], AO [a'ɔ], AU [a'u], ĀE [ha'ε], ĀI [ha'i], ĀO [ha'ɔ]

EI [ε'i], EO [ε'ɔ], EU [ε'u], ĒA, [hε'a], ĒI, [hε'i], ĒO [hε'ɔ]

OA [ɔ'a], OI [ɔ'i], OU [ɔ'u], ŌA [hɔ'a], ŌE [hɔ'ε], ŌI [hɔ'i]

As we can see from IPA transcription, second vowel of a non phonological diphtong is always stressed.

Two vowels in a diphtong are not divided into two different syllabes.

Hiatus
Every other combination of two vowels (in example the combination with a long one) are hiatus. These ones are divided into two different syllabes.

Vowels in both kind of diphtongs are included in the same syllabe.

Verbs
Krisnallen has four conjugations charaterized by one of the four phonological diphtongs in desinence of infinitive. Every verb has two important vowel. Even if Krisnallen havs four conjugation every verb can be conjugate using this rule:
 * 1) tematic vowel: it's in the verb root. It's the tonic vowel of the verb, It can be a phonological diphtong but it's an infrequent case.
 * 2) verbal vowel: it's in the verb desinence. It's the first vowel of phonological diphtong. Thanks to this one we can know the cojnugation of a conjugated verbal for.
