To make the names easier for non-Anglophones, and to make the names quicker to say, the 5 vowels are the basic vowels found in Spanish, ah-eh-ee-oh-oo. Quin is an exception. Quad may optionally be spoken as "kwah", and quin as "kwee" or "keen". In Spanish and many other languages, "th" would become "tr". See [[Color notation/Translations|Color Notation/Translations]]. Number words like bi or tri are always unaccented. To emphasize the prime limit, the first occurrence of the highest prime is always accented: sasa-'''gu'''gu, bi'''ru'''yo, bi'''zo'''zogu. In longer names, the 1st occurrence of sa/la and/or of lower primes may also be accented: '''sa'''sa-'''gu'''gu, '''zo'''zotri'''gu'''.

* Add a consonant to the subgroup word: yazap Lasepyo
* Add another word: Lasepyo on yaza, or yaza-ish lasepyo
