==Phonology==
==Phonology==
Treated below is the phonology of Standard {{PAGENAME}} ({{abbtip|/ə ˈɬɪɡ̊ɤᵝˤ ˈhiətʰœɳ/|''a Thigall hÉtaoin''}}). Other dialects differ mostly in vowel reflexes from Old {{PAGENAME}} and in the treatment of Old {{PAGENAME}} /n, nn, l, ll, r, rr/.
===Stress===
===Stress===
Primary stress usually falls on the first syllable, except for some inflected prepositions.

*/s, z/ are alveolar retracted [s̠, z̠], similar to the Northern/Central Castillan Spanish and Modern Greek /s/. They have retroflex allophones [ʂ, ʐ] next to /ɳ, ɺ˞~ɭ/.
*/ɳ/ is apical postalveolar [n̠].
*/ɳ/ is apical postalveolar [n̠].
*The retroflex liquid /ɭ/ is most often an apical postalveolar []. It can be a postalveolar lateral flap [ɺ] before vowels. Other allophones include [ɹ] and [ʟ].
*The coronal liquid has 3 allophones broadly:
**The sequence /ŋɽ/ may become a retroflex lateral nasal [ɳᶩ] or, for some speakers, even a weak retroflex click [ᵑǃ˞].
**After a consonant, it is a postalveolar [ɾ].
**Word-initially or intervocalically, it can be a lateral flap [ɺ].
**Before a consonatn or word-finally, it is a postalveolar lateral [], with varying resonances (though not velarized) depending on speaker.
*/ŋ, kʰ, k/ are usually velar [ŋ, kʰ, k], but are often labialized pharyngealized uvular [ɴʷˁ, qʷˁʰ, qʷˁ] next to /ʀ~ʟ/. /kʰʀ/ becomes an affricate or a trilled affricate [qχ].
