Notes
- (1): These are commonly reconstructed as simple plosives, as there is scant evidence for a full final voiceless nasal series
- (2): These are controversial -- there is no direct evidence for them, and the only theories reconstructing them involve regressive voiceless harmony and proposed external relationships with other languages.
