Otherwise stress is on the ultima, unless any preceding syllable has a lower wovel, in that case the closest syllable with lowest vowel receives the stress. Syllable Patterns V u 'yam' o.pwip 'swamp' VC op 'you (sg)' CV ji 'me' to.'o.te 'ready' i.mwi.li 'tired' ka.na 'food' CVC kep 'wood' hi.yu.rop 'marriage' CVV rai 'east' noi.nek 'crawl' sa.liu.wi 'wander' li.hie 'teeth' CVVC peip 'mud' khi.liep 'wild' Conventions: Phonological Conventions: Orthographic The sixth vowel is written <ø> because it carries a fairly heavy semantic load, with several minimal pairs. Velar nasal / fl/ is represented as <ng>, since that is compatible with the convention in both Pidgin and English. The same rationale is used in representing the affricates /t/ and /d/ as <ch> and <j>. The velar affricate is represented as <kh> since the sequence [kh] does not occur, [h] approximates [x] in that environment, and it avoids writing an additional grapheme. Lengthened velar nasal is represented by striking a horizontal line through it, as suggested by a participant at a writers' workshop. It is rare, and could possibly be simply written as <ng>, since context would probably indicate which word is meant.
