 ===Allophony===
-* [β ð ɣ] undergo fortition [b d g] when adjacent to a stop or nasal
+*Spirants and plosives with the same place of articulation merge and become geminated voiced plosives
-* Unvoiced stops and their voiced counterparts, when adjacent [pb bp td dt kg gk], become voiced and geminated [b: d: g:]
+** [βp] → [bː]<br/><br/>
-* [ð] undergoes fortition [d] before [l]
-* [l] becomes a lateral release [◌ˡ] after alveolar stops [t d]
+* Spirants undergo fortition, becoming voiced plosives, when adjacent to plosives with a different place of articulation or nasals
-* [n ŋ] become palatal nasals [ɲ] before [j]
+** [ðn] → [dn]
-* [h] becomes [ɧ] before [j]
+** [tɣ] → [tg]<br/><br/>
-* vowels followed by [h] [ah eh] become voiceless vowels [ḁ e̥] before a sonorant
-* [j] undergoes fortition [ʝ] word-initially
+* The alveolar voiced spirant undergoes fortition before the lateral fricative and...
-* [ɣ g] become labialized [ɣʷ gʷ] before [w]
+* The lateral fricative becomes a lateral release after an alveolar plosive
-* [w] becomes [ʋ] word initially
+**[ðl] → [dl] → [dˡ]<br/><br/>
-* [hw] becomes [ʍ]
+* The alveolar and velar nasals merge with the palatal glide to form a palatal nasal
+**[nj] → [ɲ]<br/><br/>
+* The alveolar sibilant merges with the palatal glide into a voiceless palato-alveolar sibilant
+** [sj] → [ʃ]<br/><br/>
+* The velar spirant and the palatal glide merge into a voiceless palatal-velar fricative
+**[hj] → [ɧ]<br/><br/>
+* The velar spirant and the labiovelar glide merge into a voiceless labiovelar approximant
+**[hw] → [ʍ]<br/><br/>
+* The labiovelar glide turns into labialization after a voiced velar plosive or spirant
+**[ɣw] → [ɣʷ]<br/><br/>
+* The palatal glide becomes a voiced palatal fricative word-initially
+**[∅j] → [ʝ]<br/><br/>
+* The labiovelar glide becomes a labiodental approximant word-initially
