But before other words they are different (the 'r' and 'y' are inserted for phonological reasons). For {grake}, {mitre}, and {snidu} they are: ki'ogra ki'otre ki'orsnidu megygra megytre megysnidu gigygra gigytre gigysnidu tetygra tetytre tetsnidu petygra petytre petsnidu xexygra xextre xexsnidu zetygra zetytre zetsnidu So are you going to add the prefixes to anything other than "byte"? phma
