== Rule #10 – Passivisation ==
◁CW

Any content word said backwards is its ''passive form''. The passive form has the same meaning except the subject and the object are swapped.

To say a word backwards, you put its sounds in reverse order, leaving out any schwas or glottal stops that were added to ease pronunciation, and then add schwas or glottal stops if needed to make the new form easy to say. If the new form starts with a vowel, that vowel is short. If the new form ends in a vowel, that vowel is long. Sounds that are voiced for the verb form are unvoiced, and then verb initial voicing is done to reversed version.
