Simply put, systematically replace all syllabic consonants /S/ with /yS/.
la gocti no'u la cirko ran some tests on the current JVS
zi'evla list and found no word-boundary resolution problems. This would affect all
cibyfu'ivla that used a syllabic consonant hyphen, although some
na'e cibyfu'ivla je zi'evla would also be affected, like {iklki}
Expected advantages:
- Many people have trouble distinguishing /S/ from /yS/, whether in speaking or in hearing;
- It prevents corner case problems of how certain strings of possible syllabic consonants should be pronounced, e.g. {anlnda} = {an,ln,da} or {a,nln,da}?
- As a small side effect, the /l/ hyphen for cibyfu'ivla would no longer be needed, as e.g. {ler,l,djamo} could be rendered {leryrdjamo} instead. It might not be worth trying to systematically change existing cibyfu'ivla this way though.
Expected disadvantages:
- It would complicate zi'evla rules somewhat, as before they couldn't contain /y/, but now, they can in a very specific context.
- Syllabic consonants can't be consistently banned from cmevla as well without also deciding to apply the multi-consonant syllabic coda ban to them, which would be quite problematic to anyone whose name ends in a consonant cluster.
