It also addresses spelling changes in the yo forms of certain verbs for correct pronunciation. Additionally, it covers the pronunciation of soft and hard "g" sounds in -GER and -GAR verbs, noting that -GER verbs switch from soft to hard "g" in preterit forms, while -GAR verbs only change spelling in the yo form.
