Comment below if I missed any words. Keep in mind I made up the names of the Clans (with a little help of Latin) that I did NOT list here because.... they're kind of obvious. So lionae and other stuff isn't up there. Other than "gluhen" every other shai soi word is completely and utterly made up by yours truly.
Oh! And I know that's not how you do the pronunciation stuff but I thought that might be easier to understand.
