I don't see any information at ceqli.pbwiki.com about consonant clusters and which are allowed. Is "sg" a valid cluster, as in these two words? I would ...
And if you're going to have rules explicitly stated, I'd say that at the beginning of a word (only place to find the situation in Ceqli), an unvoiced consonant...
I don't have any rules here but my own instinct for what is okay. I pronounce 'cigar' sgar anyway, But I'm a hillbilly. Loglan at one point wouldn't allow...

... Sorry for all the wavering. Here it is. Stress is on the last full vowel, unless that full vowel is the last letter of the word, in which case it falls...
