-Vowels and diphthongs are by default long. After a short vowel some final consonants are orthographically doubled as follows: mm /m/ nn /n/ pp /p/ tt /t/ cz /c/ ck /k/ ss /s/ rr /ʕ/ ch /h/ [x] ll /l/. In cases where a consonant cannot be geminated that way then an '''h''' is added after a vowel to make it a long vowel (if a short-long distinction exists for that vowel).
+Vowel are considered long when a null or the following finals follow: /m n p t c k s h l/. These finals are orthographically doubled as follows to indicate a short vowel: mm /m/ nn /n/ pp /p/ tt /t/ cz /c/ ck /k/ ss /s/ rr /ʕ/ ch /h/ [x] ll /l/. In cases where a final cannot be orthographically doubled that way then an '''h''' is added after a vowel to make it a long vowel (if a short-long distinction exists for that vowel).
 All nouns are capitalized, like in German.
