Gemination is indicated by writing the letter of a consonant twice, /t:/ is written tt. Geminate consonants may occur in onsets. -Onsets are not required for syllables.-The rime of a syllable consists of a single vowel, long or short. All syllables must have rimes. There are no diphthongs. -The coda of a syllable may be /s/, /\u0283/, /n/, /m/, /\u014B/, /f/, or /\u0294/. There may be only one consonant in the coda. -The coda of a syllable triggers centralization of the vowel. /a/ becomes /\u0259/, /i/ becomes /\u026A/, e becomes /\u025B/, o becomes /\u0254/, and u becomes /\u028A/. Long vowels become centralized diphthongs, /i:/ becomes /i\u026A/, /o:/ becomes /o\u0254/, etc. -A syllable final /\u0294/ will geminate any following stop, /k\u0259\u0294pa/ would become /k\u0259p:a/. -When an /a/ or /a:/ is followed by an /i/, it combines into /e/ and when followed by an /u/ it combines into /o/. Before /e/ and /o/, it is elided. /a/ will sometimes elide before /i/ and /u/ as well. such situations will be clarified in the grammar.Thus, /kapa: ini/ becomes /kapeni/ and /kapa unu/ becomes /kaponu/. /kapa ene/ would become kapene and kapa ono would become /kapono/. -Two vowels always coalesce into one long vowel. /kapa ana/ and /kapa: ana/ would both become /kapa:na/ -/i/ becomes /j/ before another vowel and /i:/ becomes /ij/ before another vowel in most situations. However, they may also simply elided. Thus /kapi ana/ would become /kapyana/. /u/ and /u:/ become /w/ and /uw/ in the same fashion. -/o/ and /o:/ becomes /ow/ and /o:w/ before other vowels, though they may sometimes be elided instead -/e/ and /e:/ become /ej/ and /e:j/ before vowels, though they may sometimes be elided instead. -A syllable final /n/ is written as n' whenever it is followed by a consonant, to make it clear that it is part of the preceding syllable and not a prenasalized part of the following syllable. Thus, kantu would be pronounced /ka-ntu/ but kan'tu would be pronounced /k\u0259n-tu/"@en . "Likubenge loduha"@en . .
