| ===Initial Consonant Mutation===
| |
|
| |
| 1) In Chenconian there are three types of initial consonant mutation (which despite the name also affects vowels): lenition, eclipsis and provection. The base form of a consonant is referred to as the radical in the context of mutation. The various mutations are listed in the table below:

| 2) Lenited initial consonants are indicated in the orthography by the prefixed letter ⟨u⟩ or ⟨g⟩.
| |
|
| |
| 3) Eclipsed initial consonants and vowels are indicated in the orthography by the prefixed letter ⟨x⟩ or ⟨n⟩.
| |
|
| |
| 4) Provected initial consonants and vowels are indicated in the orthography by the prefixed letter ⟨n⟩ or ⟨k⟩.
