Making significant changes to this article

Untitled

I worked on this article as a student editor through my university's Linguistics department. Before I began my research, this was a stub article, and the only main section that was present was Phonology, which contained Consonants, Vowels, and Stress. I have added the Syllable structure section as well as the main sections Nouns and noun morphology, Verbal morphology, and Syntax, as well as all of their current subsections. The majority of my data was gathered from Foley's grammar on the Yimas language.^[1]

One change to preexisting content was adding stress markers to the chart in the Stress section. The previous author used the same Foley resource, so I added the markers that the resource included. I also put the preexisting Pronouns section into my longer section about Nouns and noun morphology.
