The phonotactics in all Iskel dialects are the same. There is a (C)(C)(C)V(V)(V)(C)(C)(C)(ʰ) syllable structure (where C excludes /ʰ/), with only 3 consonants and 3 vowels (triphthongs or three nuclei) being able to be adjacent at a time. All phonemes can be adjacent to one another except for Lanikel and Kliqel's /ɾ/s and Duskel's /r/. Geminate consonants or long vowels count as one instead of two. No phoneme can occur three times in a row. Long vowels cannot be part of polypthongs. | The phonotactics in all Iskel dialects are the same.
