==MTL usage==
All the syllables after the backquote symbol are spoken in a weaker tone (either a [[low-falling tone]] or a low [[short tone]]) and [[tone sandhi]] does not apply to the preceding syllable. Examples:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
! With backquote !! Without
|-
|{{tts|[[Taan]]`[[siensvy]]}} || {{tts|Taan [[siøfciar]]}}
|-
|{{tts|[[kviaf`sie]]}} || {{tts|[[kviasie]]}}
|-
|{{tts|khuy`khuy}} || {{tts|khuikhuy}}
|}
