* Nonemphatic consonants (except /v h/) are allophonically palatalized in pausal position. /t{{asp}} t n l/ become laminal alveolar [t̻ʲ{{asp}} t{{lam}}ʲ n̻ʲ lʲ] when allophonically palatalized. Allophonic palatalization of nonemphatic consonants also occurs when said consonant is next to a prevelar consonant (one of /k̟{{asp}} k̟ x̟ j/): e.g. ''ħacme'' [ˈħ{{lowered}}æk̟ʰmʲə{{adv}}] 'rule, reign'. This also affects /v/ ''after'' a prevelar, e.g. ''gvèr'' [k̟vʲe:r] 'about, concerning'.

* Emphatic consonants are less strongly uvularized and more velarized in pausa, for speakers that uvularize emphatics.

* /h {{sh}}/ have emphatic allophones [hʶ ʂʶ] next to an emphatic consonant.

* /j/ is vocalized to [ɪ] in word-initial position before a consonant.
