Sound Generation Settings

Syllable Settings

• Shape
  • Syllable shape in the format "CVC", where C represents a consonant and V represents a vowel. The smallest allowed shape is "V".
• Consonants
  • All acceptable consonants that are allowed to appear in sounds.
• Vowels
  • All acceptable vowels and diphthongs that are allowed to appear in sounds.
• Cluster Matrix
  • Represents which manners of consonants can follow a given consonant's manner in a consonant cluster.
• Allow Crowding
  • If false, prevent unvoiced consonants from following voiced consonants.

Stress Settings

• Primary, Middle, and Ultimate Syllable Shapes
  • Each shape type represents where in a sound-word a shape can appear. The following represents how they are used:
    • 1 Syllable word: (Primary)
    • 2 Syllable word: (Primary).(Ultimate)
    • 3+ Syllable word: (Primary).(Middle)...(Ultimate) 
• Foot Size
  • Stress will either be applied on every second (Biambic) or third (Triambic) syllable/mora in a sound-word.
• Count By
  • Stress in the language will be assigned based on either Syllabic grouping (/mim.im.bu/) or Moraic grouping ([mi,m,i,m,bu])
• Stress System
  • Fixed stress always places on the same initial syllable position, while Phonemic is (programmatically) random.
• Moraism (Only applicable if Count By is Moraic)
  • Maximum number of Morae a syllable can be split into based on vowel length and coda.
    • Bimoraic: /nu:n/ -> [nu,un]
    • Trimoraic /nu:n/ -> [nu,u,n]
• Resultant Stress (only applicable if Foot Size is Triambic)
  • If true, apply secondary stresses to sound-parts directly before or after a primary stress
• Resultant Stress Direction
  • Primary, places a secondary stress on the syllable/mora before one with a primary stress, while Ultimate places one after the primary stress.

Fixed System Settings

• Stress Degree
  • The syllable (1st, 2nd, 3rd) to put the initial stress on.
    • Note: In a Biambic language, the 1st and 3rd options are essentially equivalent as a stress on the third sound-part would place a primary stress on the first (3-2) in the same way it would place a primary stress on the fifth sound-part.
• Stress Direction
  • The direction to count syllables/morae. Primary starts at the beginning of the sound-word and Ultimate starts at the end.
