syllables consist of 3-5 letters. They cannot begin with a vowel, but can begin with c (silent if first in the syllable and followed by vowel) followed by a vowel.

Words consist of main syllable (giving the foundation of the word), the secondary (providing the word with a category, e.g. noun or verb and possible conjugations), the tertiary syllable (implicating a certain relevance for the sentence).

Words as nouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs and prepositions always have a main and a secondary syllable. Whereas pronouns, conjunctions and determiners lack the secondary syllable.

If a main syllable is followed by a tertiary syllable they are divided by an apostrophy.
