+ Another fine point: The tool treats {N+DZYA} like {N+DZ+YA}, except + that it warns, "There is a stack of three or more consonants in + N+DZYA that uses at least one '+' but does not use a '+' between + each consonant.".  The tool is inconsistent, however; it + will not treat {R+TS+NYA} like {R+T+S+N+YA} (and that would be a + terrible idea). +

So far, we have spoken about consonants and vowels.  In fact, it is not trivial to determine when something is a consonant and
