I suspect you have forgotten a `}', causing me
to read past where you wanted me to stop.
I'll try to recover; but if the error is serious,
you'd better type `E' or `X' now and fix your file.

No pages of output.
Transcript written on grammar.log.

andI've added one of the tables from the document into the text below.

	À l'exception de m  qui n'est palatalisée que dans le mot myɛ́ɛ  
(tous) et son homophone myɛ́ɛ (aussi), les sonantes ne sont pas  
palatalisées ou labialisées. . Le phonème palatal /ɲ/, écrit ny,  
n'est pas palatalise : nyaƒn [ɲã˧] (nager).  Mais devant une  
voyelle longue il posse…de une variante combinatoire palatalisée  
[ ɲj] : nyaa [ ɲjā:] (voir). La nasale vélaire /ŋ/ tend à la  
labialisation non phonologique devant ɔɔ ɔ̃ɔ̃ : ŋɔri [ŋɔ̄rī  
~ [ŋwɔ̄rī] ~ [ŋwɔ̄:rī] (tê̂ter). Ces variantes libres sont  
écrites dans le dictionnaire après la forme non labialisée ŋɔri.
