I’ve been tinkering with phonological rules, and I want to make some rules based on whether a vowel is in a stressed syllable or an unstressed syllable. I didn’t see any explanation of how to use stress in phonological rules, aside from a brief mention of how to use stress in RegEx spelling. Is there a way to do that, or are they currently not sensitive to stress? And if so, how would I format it?

I was combing through the vocabulary in the most recent update and found some little bugs with default derived words, double words, and a few small formatting errors in the LaTeX dictionary. I recorded all the instances I found in a .txt file, which I'll email over instead of dumping everything into a Reddit post.

Some words seemed like they should be related but were generated separately. Some, like luri /luˈri/ v. perceive and liltzo /liltˈzo/ n. perception, seemed pretty straightforward in whether or not they should be related, but others, like idi /iˈdi/ n. memoir, kashou /kaˈʃou/ n. memory (derived from kasho /kaˈʃo/ v. remember), and lichi /litˈʃi/ n. memorial

Something I'd really love to see would be an option to generate a .txt file of all the generated words in a language, but formatted as a preferences file to import into added words. It would be really handy for working with a language from a previous version with a set vocabulary, because then you could use the latest version with all the latest improvements, while also preserving the word list that you'd generated before. (I know I'd get plenty of use out of it, at least.)

I don't know how feasible that is, and you probably wouldn't be able to use the default word list without getting weird duplicates, but I'd be willing to overlook issues like that for the convenience of having a list of

I've been racking up Gala tokens, and I was wondering what I should put them towards. In your opinions, what's the most useful item out of the three (Doggy Rope, Doggo Charm, Doggy Paddle) that you can buy in the connect trader?

If I wanted to remove one or two default derived words, how would I go about it? Can you remove them with the minus symbol in the added words box (or should it go in the derived words box)? Or would I need to remove all default derived words and copy the rest of the list into the added derived words box?

In one of my conlangs, I've been trying to prevent duplicate vowels showing up next to each other, but I'm struggling with diphthongs.

For example, it'll generate words like jìaan /ˈʤiaan/, where it's added /ia/+/a/. I've been trying to forbid combinations like that in RegEx, but words seem to slip through the cracks. (They don't seem to be derived words, so it's not an issue of a suffix creating an illegal combination.)

How can I fix this? I didn't want to forbid any vowel next to each other, because I do want it to create certain vowel combinations (e.g. u+a is fine, but not u+e). I have a series of long RegEx rules in an attempt to ban all the vowel combinations that I don't work
