   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Western_Cree_syllabics

   Long and short vowels may be written identically and require context to disambiguate. Also, western Cree writers may use the character ᙮ to indicate the end of sentence, instead of the Roman alphabet period so that it is not confused with the diacritic indicating the w sound.

   For example, the English word through consists of three phonemes: the initial "th" sound, the "r" sound, and a vowel sound.

   The affricate [dʒ] was always phonetically long between vowels; [14] it could also occur after /n/ or at the end of a word. There seems to have been no merge between [dʒ] and [j] at the end of a word, so there was a distinction in pronunciation between weġ 'way', pronounced [wej], and weċġ 'wedge', pronounced [wedːʒ] [15] or [wedʒ].

   Where one word ended with a vowel (including the nasalized vowels written am , em , im , om and um , and the diphthong ae ) and the next word began with a vowel, the former vowel, at least in verse, was regularly elided; that is, it was omitted altogether, or possibly (in the case of /i/ and /u/) pronounced like the corresponding semivowel.
