Phonotactics
Royvaldian has a decently complicated syllabic structure with a maximum syllable structure of C3VC6, permitting any consonant except /x/ and /ŋ/ to occur in the onset, and forbidding only /h/ and /j/ in the coda. The sound /n/ is permitted to occur as a syllabic consonant in the nucleas, primarily at the end of words like makssan /ma.ksn/. Also, /ks/ and /ts/ may not occur in the onset at syllables that begin words. Various consonant clusters are permitted.
