It partly depends on whether you insist on the syllables being CVC.
There's a diphthong which started out as /ai/ but is now usually
transcribed as 'ae'. Then there are the 'archaic' syllables, which
the Unicode manual tantalising refers to as being outside the system
of composed syllables.

As to the consonants, there are matters such as how you handle the
writing of the tensed stops - separate symbols or geminates? And are
the aspirated stops (and <h> for that matter!) marked by diacritics or
are they separate letters?
