A '''raku''' is a Toaq phonology concept similar to a syllable. Every word is made of multiple raku, and every [[prefix]] is exactly one raku long.

For the most part, raku consist of
* a consonant except q, so one of {{t|b c ch d f g h j k l m n p r s t ꝡ z '}})
* a vowel or diphthong ({{t|a e i o u ai ao ei oi}})
* optionally another vowel or diphthong, if what precedes isn't a diphthong
* optional {{t|q}} or {{t|m}}, if what precedes isn't a diphthong

There are some restrictions:
* No double vowels ({{t|reei}} is invalid)
* {{t|nhi ꝡi ꝡu ae au ou}} are all disallowed

Whether something is a valid raku doesn't depend on its tone: {{t|fîeq}} is one raku but three syllables, /fi˧˥ˈiː˥˩ɛŋ˩/.
