Addresses #154

buzy -> buza: from toadua
choakoy -> choadeoq: koy was replaced by deoq in Delta
fou -> fo: #154
jıy -> jıbı: #154; an alternative on toadua is jıhu, but hu is now hoı and jıhoı starts to feel a bit long?
suy -> sueq: from toadua
shıy -> shıao: from toadua; shıeq also suggested, but shıao seems more popular
tuımy -> tuıfua: from toadua, also seems very sensible
toemy -> torea: from toadua, shortening of toerea; toerea also seems like a good option

Looks good to me. One thing I’m not particularly sure of is if people use fo in second tone (as in fó) or not, and if other sentence connectors should be updated to match (nhú, jé, tíu, although tíu could also be RÚ).
