*Unaspirated consonants /p, t, k/ are half-voiced [b̥, d̥, ɡ̊] between vowels (at least within a word).

*/w/ is a labiovelar approximant [ɰʷ] with the vocalic quality of [u].

*/tʰ, t, ɬ, ɮ/ are usually alveolar [tʰ, t, ɬ, ɮ], and are retroflex [ʈʰ, ʈ, ꞎ, ɮ˞] ~~after~~ /ɺ˞~ɭ/.

*/tʰ, t, ɬ, ɮ/ are usually alveolar [tʰ, t, ɬ, ɮ], and are retroflex [ʈʰ, ʈ, ꞎ, ɮ˞] adjacent to /ɺ˞~ɭ/.

*/s, z/ are alveolar retracted [s̠, z̠], similar to the Northern/Central Castillan Spanish and Modern Greek counterparts. They have retroflex allophones [ʂ, ʐ] after /ɺ˞~ɭ/.

*/ŋ, kʰ, k/ are usually velar [ŋ, kʰ, k], but are often uvular [ɴ, qʰ, q] next to /ʀ~ʟ/. /kʰʀ/ becomes an affricate or a trilled affricate [qχ].

*/x, ɣ/ palatalize to [ç, j] before /iː yː ɪ ʏ eː øː ɛ œ/.

*The retroflex liquid /ɽ~ɺ˞~ɭ/:

**The [ɽ~ɺ˞] allophone occurs before vowels

**The [ɽ~ɺ˞] allophone occurs before vowels; [ɺ˞] predominates after /s z/.

**The [ɭ] allophones occurs after vowels ~~or /s z/~~, however [ɻ] is acceptable in this position too.

**The [ɭ] allophones occurs after vowels, however [ɻ] is acceptable in this position too.

*The uvular liquid /ʀ~ʟ/:

**The [ʀ] allophone occurs before consonants. It is a trill [ʀ] in careful speech, and a fricative [ʁ] in casual speech which devoices to [χ] after an aspirate or another fricative.
