Noun morphology
- Missing rules
- "атым" works, "балам" doesn't
- Rule: delete ы after %> and before м
ы:0 <=> %> _ м ;
- "балабыз" works, "атыбыз" doesn't
- Rule: delete ы after %> and before быз
ы:0 <=> %> _ быз ;
- "бала+ңыз" works, "атыңыз" doesn't
- Rule: delete ы after %> and before ңыз
ы:0 <=> %> _ ңыз ;
- These should all really be rules to epenthesise/insert /I/ (ы, и, у, ү) after a consonant before these endings.
