Faus has a (C)V(C) pattern, in which C is any consonant, and V is any vowel or diphthong. The only rules that apply apply to the usage of a specific phoneme. For example, diphthongs and cannot be on the onsent of a syllable, and glottal stops can only appear in a word if the next phoneme after it is a vowel, disallowing words such as "As'ta". Consonants must be separated by a vowel, though there are no limits on how many vowels may come together in a word, leading to very strange words such as euaiau (ɛ.u.a.i.au) which translates to, roughly, "Joy born from hatred," which could be equated to the German word Schadenfreude.
