Possible test cases

• ッチ – tci
• ットゥ – ttu
• ゥイ – uy
• クッコㇿウシ – kutkor'usi (the apostrophe is debatable, perhaps should be ignored)
• ンモ – mmo
• サッポロ – Satporo (should be entered with a period サッ.ポロ to have small tsu behave like t and not gemination sign.)
• ア=エホッケ – a=ehotke
• ウイユㇷ゚ケ – uiyupke (V + i = Vy unless following starts with y)
• ニウロッケ – niwrotke
• ラッチャコ – ratcako

V + u = Vw

Provisional pairs and conditions

• Basic correspondences (adapted from ja module not known if all kana is relevant in ain, she/sha, etc. removed because sh/s sounds appear universally orthographically interchangeable. Same for tse, tsa, etc. appear to occur only on morphemic boundary t + se, t + sa, etc. Many others possibly could be removed (l-row, v-row, etc.) The only real difference is shi = si and chi, chu, cha = ci, cu, ca, etc.

• Small kana correspondences (small-tsu is a special case.) Entered as entities of Hex codes listed on this page, so hopefully correct.

["ㇰ"] = "k", ["ㇱ"] = "s", ["ㇲ"] = "s", ["ㇳ"] = "t", ["ㇴ"] = "n", ["ㇵ"] = "h", ["ㇶ"] = "h", ["ㇷ"] = "h", ["ㇸ"] = "h", ["ㇹ"] = "h", ["ㇺ"] = "m", ["ㇻ"] = "r", ["ㇼ"] = "r", ["ㇽ"] = "r", ["ㇾ"] = "r", ["ㇿ"] = "r"

• Uncertain: when a small kana is followed by a vowel, e.g., r + u, TDA indicates a glottal stop(?) with an apostrophe = r'u, this additional sign has not been seen on Ainu Times, for example. Perhaps should be ignored until further confirmation.

• Small tsu is a t under the following circumstances: nothing follows it (it's the last character in a word), a period . follows it (additional sign to block gemination) or a space follows it. When something else follows it (likely a consonant-row kana and there's no period in between,) it behaves exactly as in ja – gemination sign.

["ッ"] = "t"

• • Based on the above any periods entered need to be stripped from output.

• Gemination, as mentioned, identical to the rules in ja module, including ci – geminate tci (like ja chi – tchi)

• If an i follows a vowel it becomes y – a + i + nu = aynu.
  • Exception: when something starting with y follows i following a vowel, no change takes place – a + i + yu = aiyu (not ayyu)

• When an u follows a vowel it becomes w – i + u = iw.
  • Uncertain: perhaps like with i-y it would be reversed if something starting with w followed, e.g., i + u + wa would be iuwa not iwwa but it is uncertain if there actually exist any words of this pattern.

• This is somewhat uncertain but, TDA shows this in their orthography: when an n (it was defined as n@ in the pairs) is followed by m, b or p it becomes m.
