== Writing the language ==
 
Mosici is written using the [[Nahan script]] (Mosici: {{script|script=nahan|t=narahnc an-cirta}} {{ipa|/naʀãːk ãkeʀta/}}), also known as the Póliah script (Mosici: {{script|script=nahan|t=Póliahc an-cirta}} {{ipa|/puljaːk ãkeʀta/}}).
 
The letters are the following:
 
{|class=wikitable style="text-align: center;"
! Letter !! Name !! Translitteration !! IPA Value
|-
| {{script|script=nahan|t=p}} || {{script|script=nahan|t=paí}} || p || /p/
|-
| {{script|script=nahan|t=o}} || {{script|script=nahan|t=ós}} || o || /o/
|-
| {{script|script=nahan|t=l}} || {{script|script=nahan|t=lán}} || l || /l/
|-
| {{script|script=nahan|t=i}} || {{script|script=nahan|t=írni}} || i || /e/, /j/
|-
| {{script|script=nahan|t=a}} || {{script|script=nahan|t=ánta}} || a || /a/
|-
| {{script|script=nahan|t=h}} || {{script|script=nahan|t=hapfe}} || h || ∅, lengthens a preceding vowel
|-
| {{script|script=nahan|t=r}} || {{script|script=nahan|t=ris}} || r || /ʀ/
|-
| {{script|script=nahan|t=u}} || {{script|script=nahan|t=uoc}} || u || /w/
|-
| {{script|script=nahan|t=c}} || {{script|script=nahan|t=cal}} || c || /k/
|-
| {{script|script=nahan|t=n}} || {{script|script=nahan|t=naol}} || n || /n/, nasalises a previous vowel, not pronounced in codas
|-
| {{script|script=nahan|t=e}} || {{script|script=nahan|t=éstal}} || e || /ɛ/
|-
| {{script|script=nahan|t=s}} || {{script|script=nahan|t=sipal}} || s || /s/
|-
| {{script|script=nahan|t=z}} || {{script|script=nahan|t=zorel}} || z || /z/
|-
| {{script|script=nahan|t=f}} || {{script|script=nahan|t=fasoh}} || f || /ɸ/
|-
| {{script|script=nahan|t=v}} || {{script|script=nahan|t=viren}} || v || /β/
|-
| {{script|script=nahan|t=m}} || {{script|script=nahan|t=milo}} || m || /m/
|-
| {{script|script=nahan|t=t}} || {{script|script=nahan|t=tecio}} || t || /t/
|}
 
=== Strappo ===
 
The Nahan script also uses a diacritic: the Strappo (Mosici: {{script|script=nahan|t=sitrapaóh}} {{ipa|/ɕtrapoː/}}) that modifies the values of vowel letters. It is usually transliterated with an acute.

|-
| {{script|script=nahan|t=í}} || /i/
|-
| {{script|script=nahan|t=ó}} || /u/
|}
 
=== Vowel Coalescence ===
 
Vowel coalescence is a large sound change that affected Mosici’s vowel clusters after the fosilisation of spelling. Its understanding is therefore necesary to read Mosici words properly.
 
This table summarises the coalescence patterns:
* All values in IPA
* If the first vowel is nasal, no coalescence happen, instead the /n/ is pronounced
* If the second vowel is nasal, the resulting vowel is nasal
* Of any of the vowel is long, the resulting vowel is long
* Coalescence is applied left to right.
