The result will be some very long words:

  byekyanyu (clothe/dress up) -> bayekayanayu
  gyepyanyu (refrigerate) -> gayepayanayu
  zawtwampumya (entrance/entry) -> zawatawampumaya

I don't think it's worth it.

Why are you "learning" this system?  Are you planning to use it for
machine translation?

Since Ladekwa is my hobby, I'm not in a hurry.  I'm also not willing
to compromise on quality unless I have no choice.  In this case, I
definitely have a choice to do it right.
