Phonotatics[]
A Numberian syllable includes a syllable nucleus consisting of a vowel sound. Syllable onset and coda (start and end) are optional.
A syllable can start with up to 2 consonant sounds, and end with not more than one (regardless of the diacritics) , as in 497*7`11 /swrɔv/. This gives an Numberiam syllable the following structure, (CC)V(C) where C represents a consonant and V a vowel. The consonants that may appear together in onsets or codas are restricted, as is the order in which they may appear.
