Version 3 was published on the 31st of July 2022 on [https://toaqlanguage.wordpress.com/2022/07/31/hoelai-3-and-new-phonotactics/ The Toaq Blog]. | |||
There are now only two possible patterns a syllable can take: | |||
# Consonant in the middle with vowel to the right, tone on top, and -q / -y below; or | |||
# Consonant in the middle with diphthong to the left and tone on top | |||
In addition, a bare consonant no longer implies there to be an “a” there. | |||
Since these changes would make CVV(q) and CVF syllables impossible to write as one syllable, there is a shortcut form which is a ligature of {{script|q}} + a vowel. (See right "Shortcut vowel characters".) | |||
===Zodiac mode=== | |||
'''Zodiac mode''' turns Hoelai into a syllabary by combining consonant and vowel characters. Below, the list of characters. | |||
{| | |||
|The order of the finals are:||-a, -u, -ı, -o, -e, -aı, -ao, -oı, -ou, -eı,<br>-aq, -uq, -ıq, -oq, -eq, -y | |||

This generation is only available as a [https://toaqlanguage.wordpress.com/2020/10/22/the-hoelai-writing-system-2nd-edition/ pilot demonstration article]. Since it hinges on a yet unimplemented phonology overhaul, it cannot yet be used in practice, nor has a font been made for it yet. | This generation is only available as a [https://toaqlanguage.wordpress.com/2020/10/22/the-hoelai-writing-system-2nd-edition/ pilot demonstration article].
