/m p b f v n t d θ ð ts s z ʃ ŋ ħ k g x h l w j r/ ⟨m p b f v n t d th dh ts s/x z š ng ħ k g kh h l w y r⟩
Glottal reinforcement (transcribed by tt kk, pronounced /ʔt ʔk/) occurs before historical Biblical Hebrew emphatics /tʼ kʼ tsʼ/, and also analogically in some other cases (cf. Glottalic PIE > RP English).
/l/ allophonically velarized before C.
Mutations

Vowels
Old Knánith had a rather simple vowel system:
a e i o u ø á é í ó ú /a e i o u a: e: i: o: u:/

Stress is always penultimate, except with some verbs where the lV- prefix does not have the stress.
