The syllable structure is maximally (N)C(S)V(L), where N is a pre-nasalizing vowel which is homorganic with the following consonant, S is a semi-vowel (either j or w), and C is a final consonant or semi-vowel, limited to m, n, ŋ, l, r, h, w, or j. | |||

A voiced stop is made with a horizontal strike through. Prenasalization is a diaeresis above. Labialvelarization is a ring in the middle or below. Palatalization is a vertical strike through. Ejectives are a dot below. Fricatives double up the nasal symbol. X is the glottal stop. Double r is the Czech r. Double l is the French r. | |||
