   Soon enough, we'll have to have an authorative
website to keep the GMPs, GMSs, GMCs, and (O)OGMPs
straight (well, forward at least!) ;D

   I'm still playing with it a bit, but when I'm done
I will definitely post it. I'm having
problems...err...issues with certain changes at the

  What comes out it basically welsh as written by an
irishman.

  only in stressed syllables. But ó from stressed
vowel lengthening also becomes au before sonants.
    I like diphthongs, so I've found a lot of
environments for them to arise. Cw and Cy clusters
also create a bunch of them (lengwa > leung).
