==Alphabet==
The alphabet contains 35 letters, consisting of the English alphabet plus nine more letters.

'''Aa Ää Bb Cc Dd Ðð Ee Ëë Ff Gg Hh Ħħ Ii Jj Kk Ll Mm Nn Ññ Oo Pp Qq Rr Ss Tt Uu Üü Vv Ww Xx Yy Zz Θ Ππ Ξξ'''

Vowels:
'''Aa Ää Ee Ëë Ii Oo Uu Üü Yy'''

Consonants:
'''Bb Cc Dd Ðð Ff Gg Hh Ħħ Jj Kk Ll Mm Nn Ññ Pp Qq Rr Ss Tt Vv Ww Xx Zz Θ Ππ Ξξ'''

==Consonants==
===Group One===
These can start a syllable:
:Dd Ðð Ff Gg Hh Ħħ Qq Ss Tt Xx Zz Θ Ξξ

===Group Two===
These always get their own syllable:
:Cc Ππ

===Group Three===
These can end a syllable:
:Dd Ðð Ff Gg Ħħ Qq Ss Tt Xx Zz Θ Ξξ

===Group Four===
These can form their own syllable, but they do not ''have'' to and can also start or end a syllable:
:Bb Kk Ll Mm Nn Pp Rr Vv

===Group Five===
These are ''semivowels'--they can start, but not end, syllables:
:Jj Ww

==Diphthongs==
'''Au, Oi, Kh, Rz, Tz, Vz, Dz, Rt, St, Kr, Tr, Br, Bz, Dr, Kv, Pt, Ng''' 
Ñ can replace R in a dipthong

===Group One===
These are vowels:
:Au, Oi

===Group Two===
These can start a syllable:
:Kh, Ts, Kr, Tr, Br, Dr, Kv, Pt

===Group Three===
These can end a syllable:
:Kh, Rz, Tz, Vz, Dz, Bz, Pt, Ng

==Pronunciation==
If a letter is not found in the list, pronounce it the same as in English. 
If a dipthong is not on the list, pronounce it as it looks.

==Syllables==
(C1, 2, or 4 or D2)(C5)(V or D1)(C3 or 4 or D3) 
Apostrophes (') separate syllables where it is not obvious. 
Diphthongs stay together. 
Accent goes on second to last syllable, but '''some suffixes change this'''!

==Practice Part One==
Transliterate the following words: (write with the Unlingvä alphabet):
{|
|- style="height:75px;"
|style="vertical-align:top; width:100px;"|{{Question-answer|question=Yes|answer=Jes}}
|style="vertical-align:top; width:100px;"|{{Question-answer|question=No|answer=No}}
|style="vertical-align:top; width:100px;"|{{Question-answer|question=About|answer=Übaut}}
|style="vertical-align:top; width:100px;"|{{Question-answer|question=Maybe|answer=Mäbi}}
|style="vertical-align:top; width:100px;"|{{Question-answer|question=Twitch|answer=Twüq}}
|style="vertical-align:top; width:100px;"|{{Question-answer|question=Love|answer=Lüv}}
|- style="height:75px;"
|style="vertical-align:top;"|{{Question-answer|question=Hate|answer=Hät}}
|style="vertical-align:top;"|{{Question-answer|question=Where|answer=Wär}}
|style="vertical-align:top;"|{{Question-answer|question=Why|answer=Wy}}
|style="vertical-align:top;"|{{Question-answer|question=Joy|answer=Ħoi}}
|style="vertical-align:top;"|{{Question-answer|question=Theta|answer=Θätü}}
|style="vertical-align:top;"|{{Question-answer|question=Though|answer=Ðo}}
|}

==Practice Part Two==
Transliterate the following words: (write with the English alphabet):
{|
|- style="height:75px;"
|style="vertical-align:top; width:100px;"|{{Question-answer|question=Kvin|answer=Queen}}
|style="vertical-align:top; width:100px;"|{{Question-answer|question=Ħorħ|answer=George}}

|style="vertical-align:top; width:100px;"|{{Question-answer|question=Khär|answer=Care}}
|}

==Practice Part Three==
Separate into syllables, and underline the stressed syllable (assuming no rules change stress):
{|
|- style="height:75px;"
|style="vertical-align:top; width:100px;"|{{Question-answer|question=Ptärijun|answer=P-tä-ri-jun}}
|style="vertical-align:top; width:100px;"|{{Question-answer|question=Fliox|answer=Fli-ox}}
|style="vertical-align:top; width:100px;"|{{Question-answer|question=Pipül|answer=Pi-pül}}
|style="vertical-align:top; width:100px;"|{{Question-answer|question=Θänk'ju|answer=Θänk-ju}}
