Оö-Fýtap

The Оö-Fýtap is the smallest major component of the Оö, the skeletal and nervous system of the Ibrófeneð. It consists of a thin ring of gelatin on which are attached two small roughly-cubic pieces of bone. These bones contain a whole host of nerves, which, when oriented such that this bone is located in the gap between the Оö-Ëtavú, or upper skeletal (half), and Оö-Ŋüžtú, or lower skeletal (half), the nerve signals running from the brain to the legs, and vice versa, can bridge the gap and freely reach their intended destination. Thus, the Оö-Fýtap serves as the main connector between the Žëša, whos components include the brain and other sensory and motor organs like the eyes, ears, and Matošu, and the extremities, most importantly the legs.

A major consequence of this is that the movements of the legs is heavily determined by the capacity of the Оö-Fýtap to transport signals. The drastic limitation to 2 pieces of bone means that only two legs can move at once, and most, if not all, cultures make use of a certain set of Fýtapian movements, called Palaŋ-Fýtap, to precisely control the legs during macromovements like walking, kicking, and communicative gestures.

Regarding its place in cultural and lingual aspects of Ibrófeneðian lifestyle, the Оö-Fýtap effectively limits the syncronization between the legs and the other organs frequently used in communication, like the teeth and the Matošu. Thus, an attempt to 'simultaneously' communicate with the legs and upper-body organs instead results in the communication of the legs being delayed from that of the upper-body organ. This results in two major fundamentals of most systems of Ïfon-Wë: the Kmoŋ-Šïtaðöt, in which commands given to the legs for communication purposes are actually given half a second before they are to be sounded, and the Kmoŋ-Šïpalút, where commands may be given such that, by the time they reach the Оö-Fýtap, the piece of bone is actually in the transition between moving from one junction to another, resulting in a doubling of the signal.
