For the most part, I gave the strange values the nearest English forms.
When there was nothing close, I used a random letter.

Two sets of two interchangeable values. That mitigates it at least
partially.

From a poem called "anyone lived in a pretty how town":
he sang his didn't he danced his did
zokanyaxartsho zokyarxartsho

zo - 3s
kan - to sing (irregular form)
nya - negative
xar - to do
tsho - his

zo - 3s
kyar - to dance
xar - to do
tsho - his

they sowed their isn’t they reaped their same
yazaboryelnyinur yazamiryeltuk

ya - 3p
zabor - to sow
yel - their
nyi - negative
ur - to be (-n- is just to connect them)

ya - 3p
zamir - to reap
yel - their
tuk - same

When there is no expressed subject, there has to be a person affix. If
there is a person affix, the subject is assumed to be implied. I'm
enforcing order on my insanity.
