aq must be used whenever available: an anaphoric pronoun in its skips over the would-be aq referent.
Numbers are split up and have special serialization rules

Particles can be multisyllabic now, allowing for...
- mıru, "Mx.", with same grammar as mı

mao, juaq are KU-class particles now
fı, go, cu are "demoted to experimental"
Warning/permitting/agreement-seeking illocutions
New interjections, including nho "yes" and zı "no"
