The words below are more irregular than words which end in a small symbol, as the ending changes in unpredictable ways when a suffix is added. Some words drop the ᐃ and others do not when a diminutive, locative or possessive suffix is added. Pay attention to the endings, as they are very irregular. If the previous ᐸ, ᑕ, ᑲ is short (no dot), then change it to ᐹ, ᑖ, ᑳ. Sometimes the final ᑯᐃ changes to ᐧᑳ.
