Re: [tlhIngan Hol] How do you explain {'InSong} ?
my confusion originated from the misconception, that we don't analyze words in three/two letter clusters, but rather we start from the beginning and going (cvcvcvcvcv..). anyway, I understand now. loghaD Quvar je Satlho'. qunnoH jan puqloD ghoghwIj HablI'vo' vIngeHta' On 10 Dec 2016 1:37 pm, "Lieven" <levinius@gmx.de> wrote: Am 10.12.2016 um 11:27 schrieb mayqel qunenoS:
according to the rule of cvc, how come that after the {n} the {S} follows ? this produces (cvccvc).
I still do not know why you are suddenly confused, why this word? See your own signature: qunnoH jan puqloD

It may help that you memorize "syllable" instead of "word" in the above mentioned analysis. -- Lieven L. Litaer aka Quvar valer 'utlh Grammarian of the KLI http://www.facebook.com/Klingonteacher http://www.klingonwiki.net

Like others said, this is not a written rule, more a general observation. But yes, it applies to syllables when you say they follow the structure CVC. Of course, as most word consist of only one sylable, it applies to them as well. Besides of -oy, no syllable starts with a vowel. That's important for beginners who try to analyze long words, for instance: {DaSov} could possible start with {DaS}, but {ov} cannot meaning anything. So that word must be Da+Sov. You have certainly obeserved that words can be stuck together with suffixes, prefixes, and even nouns, so it is unavoidable that consonants touch each other, creating seemingly strange combinations. When I first read the word 'entepray' I was confused as I thought it does not follow the system, having two syllables 'ente + pray' (like it is in english). But then I found out that it perfectly follows the pattern, saying 'en+tep+ray' :-) -- Lieven L.
