Stacks characters into syllables, though some common morphemes have one-character representations (=an topic marker is written as /n/, ḩa-/m- past tense marker is written as a bar over (but ḩa- in 'ḩalattw' isn't), not sure what to do with -cera yet but -ra is just written /ra/).

Aacheung jikchdorkniokpsay aajung goy. However, it is an alphasyllabary.
