#/ə/ is the unstressed realization of /æ, ɔ/. (differing by slender vs broad)
# Every vowel can appear nasalized.
#/æ/ is often /ɛ/ before nasals, but rarely so anywhere else.
 
Long vowels have long been lost, though their effects remain prominently, influencing the languages stress patterns heavily.
 
Every vowel can appear nasalized, though nasalization only occurs in specific positions, and is always shown with a single N. (though not all single Ns are nasalization)
*Word finally
*Before a fricative (Though "nh" is /z/)
*In some irregular positions when loaned from another language.

these can be shown quite well through pronoun + verb, as a pronoun exists that causes both, the word order for these will be slightly odd.
The following gives each form of {{l|snon|tàl}}:
 
:''{{lang|snon|tàlir}}'' /ˈtɑ.ʎəɾʲ/ — "I speak"
The following gives an example using "mic" ("I, me"), "ha" ("he, him"), and "ic" ("we, us", emphatic):
:''{{lang|snon|dàlir}}'' /ˈdɑ.ʎəɾʲ/ — "he speaks"
:''{{lang|snon|mic tàlarr}}'' /ˈmʲɪc ˈto.ʎərʲ/ — "I speak"
:''{{lang|snon|thàlir}}'' /ˈxɑ.ʎəɾʲ/ — "we (emphatic) speak"
:''{{lang|snon|ha dtàlarr}}'' /ˈçæ ˈdo.ʎərʲ/ — "he speaks"
:''{{lang|snon|ic thàlarr}}'' /ˈɪc ˈθo.ʎərʲ/ — "we (emphatic) speak"
