‘ = soft pause, used for conjunctions and nouns to be possessive / set descriptors.
“ = hard pause, same as soft pause, but used for descriptors themselves to override it.
_ = inbreath, plurals for noun, past tense for verbs, emphasis for conjunctions and adjectives.
Normal Grammatical Structure:
Noun (possessive?), conjunction (verb/adjective?), descriptor, descriptor…, noun (to noun, possessive?)
Descriptors can mean entirely different things in different contexts (verb or adjective form), though it should be similar. Each character is pronounced with a mix of a Cambodian, Japanese, and Latin accent opposed to English.
Intense Grammatical Structure:
Noun, conjunction, descriptor (verb), descriptor (verb), descriptor (verb)…, noun.
