Rules of syntax:
- Consonant combinations must always be followed by a vowel.
- TH makes the traditional "soft t" sound when at the end of a word, all other times it sounds like an H
- If the consonant combination sounds a stop (GH, DH, CH) it does not end a word, use the traditional letter (g or k)
- Certain letter combinations are monosyllabic: ao, eor, in. Breaking these letters up necessitates a syllable break
- Placing a stop (c, ch, b, d, dh, g, gh, t) ends the syllable
