Heh, been there... just hang on to it.

Pomo? Why do I associate that with Italian? How is that system then?

If you have so few words as you claim, I'm sure you can list all of them :) As for phonology; is it the actual sound-rules or the orthography that is the problem? I've changed the orthography, oh, at least four or five times since 1997, but the underlying phonology haven't changed that much. t.
