Vowels
i /i/ ī /iː/ e /e/ ē /eː/ a /a/ ā /aː/ o /o/ ō /oː/ u /u/ ū /uː/ ei /aj/ au /aw/ By default, these vowels sound like [i e æ o u ɛj ɛw]; in RTR environments, [ɪ ɛ ɑ ɔ ʊ ɑj ɑw]. An RTR envionment is any vowel adjacent to an emphatic consonant (a cluster containing d, r, or rr).
Phonotactics
Initial emphatics are not allowed. Vowel hiatus is.
