Verbs, nouns & adjectives have a primary tone on a high pitch. If
there are 4 or more syllables there is a secondary tone on a medium
pitch.  The other syllables have a basal tone which is a low pitch.
Polysyllabic words in other classes only have secondary and basal
pitch.

This doesn't make sense to me. Can you list a couple of examples? To me what it sounds like is that you're explaining a stress system, not a tonal system. Also, have you submitted your Babel text to Langmaker.com? -David ******************************************************************* "sunly eleSkarez ygralleryf ydZZixelje je ox2mejze."
