it's actually got some simple rules, which mean it goes in the order it does, but it's still relatively arbitrary so it feels "natural".

the ordering rules become more clear if I rewrite it like this:

a b d g m
e p t k n
i f s l r h
o v z w j
u c x q y

@lizardsquid Okay I get it's 5-5-6-5-5 and each section starts with a vowel but I'm not sure I can figure out the rule governing consonant placement

@witchfynder_finder it's approximately front of the mouth to back of the mouth, but the nasals are just at the end of the voiced/unvoiced rows of stop consonants, and the more sonorant consonants aren't really in much of an ordering.

And then the bottom row is for the consonants that are hard to actually assign a phoneme to.

(and now that I think about it, I should switch j and y)

@witchfynder_finder because you were probably expecting something fancier ::P
