diia



I'm redoing the dictionary, and I'm still annoyed about diia.

What I want to do is have it possible to have two words,now represented by dia (DYAH) and diia (DEE-ah). That was possible with y as the semivowel, but when I dropped that, I had to come up with the rationale of the i being a vowel and the following ia being a diphthong, therefore two syllables. If anybody can think of a more elegant way to do this, I'd love to hear it. Fala
