Phonology

Consonants

Labial Dental Alveolar Postalveolar Velar Glottal
hard soft hard soft hard soft hard soft soft hard
Nasal m m mi n ni ņi ŋʲ ņ ŋ
Stop voiceless p p pi t ti ki k k ʔ
voiced b b bi d di gi g g
Affricate c ts 'ci tsʲ cz czi tʃʲ

Only hard consonants are allowed word-finally. Word final /v/ is pronounced [w].

Initial voiceless stops were traditionally not aspirated, but are commonly aspirated now.

Vowels

a/ia e/ie o/io å/iå y/i u/iu /a e o uə~iə i u/ (double letters were historical breathy vowels)

Unstressed vowel: /ə/ (spelled a if nonpalatalizing and i if palatalizing)

Phonotactics

Zero and C are the only permitted word-final codas.

Here is a list (modulo palatalization) by type of cluster (some clusters may be listed more than once):

  • Cl: pl, tl, cl, kl, bl, gl, fl, chl, sl
  • Cr: pr, tr, cr, kr, br, dr, gr, fr, thr, chr, sr
  • Cm: tm, thm, km, chm, sm
  • Cn: fn, kn, chn, sn
  • Cng: fng, tng, thng, chng, sng
  • Cv: tv, thv, kv, chv, gv, sv, szv
  • sC: sp, st, sk, sm, sn, sng, sl, sr, sv
  • chC: chm, chn, chng, chl, chr

Voiced stops are not allowed to begin minor syllables in roots. This rule does not apply to proper names.
