 * 1) Vowels mix, like french. The first word's vowel is replaced with a comma. ex: Ìo qeamìer ~ Ìo q'amìer  (That I like)
 * 2) "R" is always /r/ at the start of a word
 * 3) ¨ seperates vowels (ex: eu /œ/ ~ eü /ɛwu/)
 * 4) Final "E" is silent, unless with ´ (ex: boïvise /bɔivis/ <- means nothing || boïvisé /boivisɛ/ <- that [I] drink)
 * 5) Rule 4 doesn't count to the Present tense conjugation of -er verbs
