===Syllable Structure===
=== '''Stress''' ===
(C<sub>1</sub>)(j)V(C<sub>2</sub>)
*C<sub>1</sub>: a consonant
*C<sub>2</sub>: one of /ɾ l s n/
*V: a vowel
''Clusters formed between ''/ɾ l s n/'' are forbidden with the exception of'' /ɾs ls ns/


===Allophony===
=== Allophony ===
* [n] assimilate in place of articulation to following consonants
* Voiced fricatives [β ð ɣ] become voiced stops [b d g] before [ɾ]
* [n] assimilate in place of articulation to following consonants [m n ŋ ɴ]
* [h] become voiced [ɦ] between voiced vowels
* [h] become voiced [ɦ] between voiced vowels
* [ə̥] are assimilated into aspiration after stops [p t k]
* [ə̥] are assimilated into aspiration after stops [p t k]
* [ə̥] become [ʔ] word-initially
* [ə̥] become [ʔ] word-initially
* [ə̥] become [ɦ] between vowels
* [ə̥] become [ɦ] between vowels
* [ɾɾ] are realized as [r]
