It is NOT that "ua" is not permitted in a fu'ivla (I can't specifically 
recall a prohibition, at least), but that it is not clear that kuarka, 
ku,arka, and ku'arka can be considered as *different* words because of the 
alternate orthography (which would be unusable if we allowed all VV's to 
exist in both diphthong and non-diphthong forms).
