A Toaq syllable is analysed into four Hoelai parts: 1. the consonant, which becomes the glyph in the middle; 2. the first phoneme in the nucleus, which is written right of the consonant (unless it is {{t|a}}, in which case it should be omitted); 3. the rest of the nucleus, written left of the consonant (optional); 4. the tone, together with the coda (presence/absence of {{t|-q}}), written above. (This part is empty for neutral tone syllables without {{t|-q}}.)

(This part is empty for neutral tone syllables without {{t|-q}}.)


Note that if the nucleus ends in a diphthong – one of {{t|-ai, -ao, -oi, -ei}} – it is treated as a (3). Moreover, if this diphthong is the whole nucleus, (2) is omitted in favour of it. For example, {{t|maı}} is understood to be <code>m--ai</code>, not <code>m-a-i</code>; it would be written with the {{t|-ai}} glyph from (3).

The circle ‘consonant’ signifies the lack of a consonant; an underdot signifies the lack of a vowel. This is the reason why {{t|q}} from the second row was written as a null consonant + {{t|-q}}.

# The tone mark (if present) is written with a capital letter – the corresponding [[vietoaq.md|Vietoaq]] final. In short: {{t|aq ā āq á áq ǎ ǎq ả ảq â âq à àq ã ãq}} are mapped to <code>Q R L P B X Z N M T D K G F V</code>.

(3) comes first, then (1), then (4), then (2). The null consonant (circle) is <code>q</code>; the null vowel (underdot) is <code>Y</code>. The first sentence from the sample text below would be <code>pFuvjR bi EmNi s xPi yrNuAjLo AdXo tKi tu lPu pM AhPo AgPu n, AdTugRi AhPo d</code>.
